The internet didn’t work very well at the hotel in Nancy the night before, so this is an update from here in Clervo @ Luxembourg.

We are nearing the end of our road trip. On this day, we traveled to Alsace and visited mainly the villages around Colmar. It was less than two hours away from Besançon. If you use the highway, it doesn’t seem so far.

最初の村はEguisheim(エギスアイム)

In my own mind, the image of Alsace is Germany. Is it the most beautiful village in France though it is in Germany? I had such a feeling. The town looks like a picture book of Alsace.

続いてはエギスアイムから車で20分程度したかしないか、そのくらい近いRiquewihr(リクヴィール)という村へと向かいます。

The road leading to this village is called the “Alsace Wine Road”. Needless to say, the whole area is covered with vineyards.

Riquewihr is probably the most famous of the beautiful Alsatian villages in this area. There were so many tourists and it was a bit touristy in a bad way.

Yes, it is a beautiful village, but….

Hunawihr(ウナヴィール)ですが、ここはリクヴィールから車で5分位でついてまいます。となり村というほどではないにしてもとても近いです。

Compared to Riquewihr, it was a very quiet, small and rustic village.

次のMittelbergheim(ミッテルベルガイム)、同じくアルザス地方の美しい村ですが、前3つの村からはほんの少し離れています。それでも車で40分かかるかかからないか、その程度の距離です。

This village was also surrounded by vineyards.

Well, after this, we left Alsace at once and went to Lorraine. We didn’t stop at Colmar or Strasbourg. I’ve been to Strasbourg many times, so it’s good now.

We arrived in Nancy.

The last time I went to Nancy was in August last year, and it was raining so hard that I couldn’t see the sights or take any pictures, but this day the weather was generally good, if not fine.

Thanks to this, we were able to take our time and take pictures.

この日はナンシーに宿泊。
