Whilst it would be a pity to come to Midi-Pyrénées only to visit the essential sites, it would also be a shame to come to Midi-Pyrénées and miss the essential sights!
There are some unmissable towns: Toulouse, the "pink city"; Albi, birthplace of Toulouse-Lautrec; Lourdes, the pilgrim town; Moissac... There are some unforgettable natural sites: Pic du Midi; Gavarnie; the Lot Valley; the Tarn Gorges... There are still sites and villages that defy time and history: Rocamadour; Cordes sur Ciel; Marciac; Montségur... There are those towns of art and history, such as Figeac and Montauban, full of treasures...
All of these places will leave their indelible mark in your imagination...
