The second day of the France section begins. The first beautiful village of the day is “Semur-en-Brionnais”, which is about an hour drive from Moulins.

The village is located on National Highway N79 east, south near Digowan, and 5 km east of the town of Marsigny.

There was no conspicuous public parking, but we found a good space near the village entrance and parked there.

We walked for a few minutes to the center of the village.

The village is characterized by its old castle, which is relatively old and was probably used from the 11th to the 18th century.

And this is the church.

After all, it was chosen as a beautiful village, so it has something. This church is very magnificent and big compared to the size and simplicity of the village.

Still, it’s a beautiful day.

The inside of the church was also very nice.

It was difficult to visit this place even by car because it is almost 80km away from Clermont Ferrand and Lyon and there are no sightseeing spots around, but it was worth visiting just to see this church.

After this we were going to visit a village called Charu, but we took a wrong turn and couldn’t visit it… This day’s next visit to a beautiful village will be in the evening.
