Champagne is still a tourist insider tip, despite the former county being a true treasure trove of cultural riches. Troyes boasts Europe’s largest preserved half-timbered old town. The coronation city of Reims, with its cathedral, the Basilica of Saint-Remi, and the Palais du Tau, is part of the UNESCO World Heritage. The vineyards, champagne houses, and cellars are also included in the World Heritage. From the champagne capital Épernay, various wine routes lead to the charming wine-growing villages of the Montagne de Reims and the Marne Valley. The Forêt d’Orient Nature Park, with its reservoirs, is equally popular among water sports enthusiasts, hikers, and cyclists.
