Beautiful church with south western gothic architecture and octagonal tower. It is located a short walk from the old Town in the saint cyprian area just to the west of the Garonne river and can be seen in the distance just over the bridge near hospice de la grave. At the time of visiting it was very peaceful and quiet, it is well worth a visit while in Toulouse.

Saint Nicolas Catholic Church in Toulouse is a beautiful small building that has a lot of history and charm. Keep in mind that the lighting inside is low and that natural light comes in through the high windows only. Your pictures might need more light to be clearer, but your visit will still be memorable.

Château du Lude

The Château du Lude is one of the many great châteaux of the Loire Valley in France. Le Lude is the most northerly château of the Loire Valley and one of the last important historic castles in France, still inhabited by the same family for the last 260 years. The château is testimony to four centuries of French architecture, as a stronghold transformed into an elegant house during the Renaissance and the 18th century. The monument is located in the valley of Le Loir. Its gardens have evolved throughout the centuries.
