France is the heart of the Visual Travel Guide, with by far its largest collection of photographs, taken from 1996 to 2026. The country stretches from the North Sea and the Channel to the Mediterranean, and from the Atlantic to the Alps and the Rhine. The galleries cover Paris and the Île-de-France, the châteaux of the Loire Valley, Brittany and Normandy, Provence and the French Riviera, Corsica, the Pyrenees and the Basque Country, the Alps, Burgundy, Alsace and many other regions, towns, abbeys and villages, as well as overseas territories such as Réunion.
