About Dijon

Dijon, the capital city of the Burgundy, is best known for its locally-produced mustard. It is one of France's most beautiful cosmopolitan cities. The absence of heavy traffic and the peaceful atmosphere make Dijon very easy to fall in love with as a place.

Dijon can be reached by train from Paris and numerous other large French cities.

Once you reach the city, it is best to walk to get to places. And if you do not feel up to it, there is always the ever-present bus service. The city even offers a free shuttle bus service called the Diviaciti for tourists. The Office of Tourism can be visited for free maps and travel guides.

There are many places and monuments in Dijon worth visiting, such as the Palais Ducal (home to the Musée des Beaux-Arts), the Palais de Justice, the Well of Moses, St. Michel Church and the beautiful Jardin Darcy park.

For shopping, be sure to visit the Rue de la Liberte, the main shopping street of Dijon. For fresh farm produce, the indoor market of Les Halles is a good option.

Dijon's restaurants serve delicious traditional French dishes, usually at reasonable prices. It is also famous as the place of origin of cassis, a sweet blackcurrant liquor.s
