Toulouse is a compact warren of winding cobbled streets lined with lovely rose-coloured buildings that give the Pink City its nickname. It’s a joy to explore on foot, especially since few cars brave the narrow lanes here.

Some of the buildings and public spaces around the centre are beautiful. The large Place du Capitole has a striking old town hall and theatre complex with eight columns of marble. Close by, the Saint Sernin Basilica is a soaring example of Romanesque architecture and inscribed on UNESCO’s World Heritage List. The city’s famous pink bricks, incidentally, are said to originate from the mud of the Garonne River, which flows west of the city centre. The famous Canal du Midi also cuts through the city.A not-to-be-missed stop on your trip to southwest France, Toulouse, the’Pink City’ of contrasts, boasts an exceptional heritage and offers visitors plenty of pleasant surprises! Toulouse itself is known as a center of aviation and spaceflight in the past 20 years – also the home of the famous Airbus. Our choice of visiting on one of the hottest days this summer perhaps wasn’t the smartest idea but we still had a great time and made the most of our day.
