Opdag Toulouse (Frankrig)
Toulouse: den smukke lyserøde by, som du skal besøge i dit liv

Toulouse er hovedstaden i departementet Haute-Garonne i det sydlige Frankrig. Dette smukke sted er kendt som den lyserøde by på grund af de okkerfarvede hustage og kirkernes koralfarvede mursten. Denne 2000 år gamle by startede som en bosættelse af keltere på bredden af Garonne-floden.
Som den fjerdestørste by i Frankrig har Toulouse en stor kunst- og historisk arv med museer og palæer. Og selv med en så stærk tilstedeværelse af fortiden har byen en veludviklet luftfartsindustri. Som forventet af en fransk by har Toulouse også en rig madkultur. Du skal helt sikkert prøve den berømte Cassoulet og Toulouse-pølsen.

The district Matabiau is the area where you can find the main railway station of Toulouse. Besides the suburbs, there is also the district St. Sernin, with museums, local markets, cafes and small shops.
Have fun: what can you do in Toulouse
Art. This word can express the soul of Toulouse, so you can find lots of places to admire different forms of art. One example is the Museum Augustins, a convent that became a museum in 1793, gathering masterpieces of Toulouse. So this is one of the oldest museums of France.
Food is an essential part of a culture, so you have to visit the Marche Victor Hugo, a covered market with many stalls selling all type of typical french food. Two of the most famous stalls are the Maison Garcia (artisan charcuterie) and the Chez Betty (where you can try delicious and refined cheese).
With all of this to do, the fun is guaranteed. Just take your time and enjoy the beautiful Toulouse.
