This bridge is truly magnificent. With a beautiful view of the city in the background! The best time to go is at sunset; it's breathtaking!

An unusual footbridge, quite pretty. It's a bit bumpy on a bike because of the metal bars they've put on the ground, but nothing too bothersome over such a short distance! It's worth a look!

There is a very nice view on this road, with the bonus of the ruined castle of Castelnau-de-Levis (it might be worth going to see it more closely next time...)

Nice castle that I only saw from the outside but it was already not bad!

Coming to Albi without making a detour to the Sainte-Cécile cathedral is not possible. This religious building in red brick will amaze you as it is so imposing. For my part, it reminds me of an immense stone vessel. Faced with such majesty, you will understand why it has been classified with the episcopal city of Albi since July 31, 2010 on the UNESCO World Heritage List. The first cathedral dates back to the 4th century, but it was during the 13th century that it was profoundly modified by major works. Under the aegis of Sainte-Cécile, patron saint of musicians, take the time to visit this marvel. It is the most visited cathedral in France ahead of Notre-Dame de Paris.

Saint CECILE, to whom the cathedral in Albi was dedicated, is, among the large circle of saints, primarily responsible for good sound - if one can put it so casually at this point - because she is the patron saint of church music. Many religious choirs are named after her. The dates of her life from the corresponding saint's legend are not historically certain, but she is said to be a martyr from the beginning of the third century. The patron saint's feast day, i.e. her memorial day in the calendar of saints, is on November 22nd in all major Christian denominations.
