Pont valentré
Have you been to the South of France?  Well the Ponte Valente is a must see near Cahors.  This 14th century six span stone bridge is a symbol of the city of Cahors, crossing the Lot River.  Opened in 1350, there is a legend here just like so many of the structures around medieval France.  #reflections #travel #france #reflection

There was major construction work and renovations occurring during our stay but this was not overly intrusive. Staff were excellent and the buffet breakfast was very good in the French style. Hotel is very well located next to the railway station and at the edge of the Old Town.

Cahors is such a friendly town, the restaurants and shops are a bit pricey but it’s a tourist hub so to be expected. I’d recommend the Bistro la Lisa and their Query sandwich, kids menus is perfect and delicious food.

4/5 - Good

Stop by the pub - au bureau on the rue dr Gambetta it’s a great place to watch the world go by and a shaker walk from the main fountains in the square.
