City in France
Toulouse
3 things to see
Toulouse is the “Pink City” of southwestern France, with rosy brick architecture, a bustling canal-side scene, and cassoulet at prices that leave Paris in the dust. The riverside walks along the Garonne, the towpaths of the Canal du Midi, and the vast brick basilica on the central square are all free to enjoy. It sits within easy, cheap train reach of Carcassonne and Bordeaux, making it a strong budget base for the southwest. Spring and autumn bring mild weather without the summer peak.
