This UNESCO World Heritage Site in Carcassonne is a MUST visit if you are staying nearby in the South of France š«š·
Itās free to walk around and it is just beautiful weaving your way through the ancient streets of this citadel š° thereās lots of shops, bars and restaurants too. So you can easily spend all day here.
Itās not surprising that it gets busy especially in summer. We like to visit in October when the temperatures are cooler and itās not as crowded.
If youāre going with little ones itās worth noting that itās not the most buggy friendly terrain but itās manageable. Also some restaurants didnāt have high chairs.
