As a frequent British visitor to France, one of my favourite things about the country is the fact that it’s simultaneously a northern European country and a southern European country (a good way of illustrating this is noting that Dunkirk - 51.03°N - is almost on the same latitude as London - 51.51°N - whilst Perpignan - 42.69°N - is more or less on the same latitude as Rome - 41.90°N), and the food, people, architecture and general lifestyle reflect this fact. There is nothing I like better than getting a ferry to Brittany and Normandy, enjoying the Franco-Celtic green and pleasant scenery for a few days, then hopping on a TGV and 4hrs later I’m soaking up the sun, listening to the electric buzz of the cicadas, and walking among the palm trees of Nice, or Marseille, or Perpignan. The colours change to reflect the predominant skies. Paris, with its resolutely monochrome palette, knows it's a northern town. 250 miles south and you’re in Lyon, a city whose colours resemble a box of ripening peaches and with bleached red roofs reflecting the southern sun. The fact the country also borders 8 other countries makes it endlessly fascinating, as you get that Flemish vibe in Lille, a distinctly Germanic tone in Strasbourg, and that seductive Latin magnetism of Spain and Italy in Bayonne and Nice. Food, people, weather, architecture all distinctly change to a fascinating extent from region to region, city to city, village to village. In many ways, notwithstanding its strong centralism and the prevalent 21st century globalism, France feels like about 3 or 4 countries in one. For all these reasons (and more!), it’s an endlessly captivating place.
You might have visited them, but I advise you the Vieux Nice and Vieil Antibes, they are the old town parts of Nice and Antibes and it's very beautiful, I have so much memories from these places, so beautifull.
France is so beautiful! Such a diversity in landscape and everything looks so amazing. I have always considered France to be the most beautiful country in Europe because it takes a bit of everything the nicest from Europe. Not to mention the culture, tradition and history that only emphasises how big the French nation is!
France really has it all! Where is your favorite place there?
So hard to say. Of the top of my head, I loved the Loir river valley (central France ), Cote d'Azur, obviously the Alps (in my opinion they are the most impressive in France), so many small towns that are so well preserved all around the country. Very difficult to choose only one place...
Oh yes, I agree 100 per 100 with you
A former girlfried of mine wrote for a travellers magazine and had seen the whole world, even Mianmar, Siberia and the Easter Islands. But when SHE was on hoildays she always visited: la France :-)
Don't forget Italia! = )
it's no suprise that this country is the #1 most visited country in the whole world, just absolutely stunning!
This citadel is mostly built in 1800s
Not always, and that's because of the Eiffel Tower.
Most buildings are from 1800s.
I've been all around France and I'd say a few spots are missing overall, mainly in Aquitaine and Occitanie. There's the Dordogne, the Gorges du Tarn, the Cévennes, the Aubrac plateau, the Quercy region (Rocamadour), and the Ardèche. I think that when visiting France, it's best to just pick a region or two and visit that. Doing specific locations one by one in different regions is the worst way to travel. Like for example, a lot of Americans will do Paris, the D-day beaches, part of the Riviera, and maybe another town like Lyon or Bordeaux. It's best to get lost in the countryside, visit the medieval villages, try out all the local food...
You really know how to travel, I need to visit this places! Really appreciate your comments
Yeah, there's nothing from the middle of the country basically, not even Auvergne will all its volcanoes, it's a bit of a shame.
I would add as well the Padirac chasm
@@RyanShirley he's just french, thats why
I find Aquitaine boring compared to the south east. No views. Trees obscure everything. Wet wet wet. Every Atlantic storm just dumps on it. Nothing there that your couldn’t get much better in Provence.
As a French, you honor us with this video. Glad you enjoyed your tour, man! And yeah, le Mont Saint-Michel is truly magical.
Ah thanks so much mate! I’m honored you enjoyed the video. What part of France are you from?
@@RyanShirley You're welcome! I'm from Aix-en-Provence (south-east, one hour's drive from the Calanques)
Il honore personne il ramène plus de touristes à des lieux déjà bondés de touristes .. surtout que ces touristes là ne sont pas respectueux de notre pays
@@wankilbananier8905 Quand c'est les régions entière ça va, tout le monde sait que les Pyrénées, la Bretagne, les châteaux de la Loire... C'est magnifique. Mais par contre clairement les gorges du Verdon par exemple, aussi magnifique qu'est le lieu, perso j'y mettrais jamais les pieds l'été. Les embouteillages de kayak c'est l'enfer. C'est con parce que c'est un lieu incroyable, que j'ai vu hors saison. De toute façon il faut partir du principe qu'on est tous le touriste de quelqu'un malheureusement. On ne peut rien avoir que pour soit. Là où on a quand même le plus cette sensation d'avoir un lieu pour soit, ça reste à la montagne. En haute et moyenne montagne. T'es pas tout seul, mais t'as au moins cette impression. Puis si y'a pas un télésiège ni rien qui monte, déjà ça limite sacrément la population. Ou mieux, si t'es en pleine montagne en mode bivouac, là ça se limite aux marcheurs. Tu te retrouves entre gens qui aiment la randonnée, qui sont tranquilles et respectueux. Bref, la montagne c'est le top l'été ! La Bretagne j'ai la chance de l'avoir toute l'année.
@@wankilbananier8905 C'est comme ça qu'on reconnaît un français 😂
You forgot the most beautiful region😱😅I am German, but I love France and have been to all regions. I have already spent over a year in France through vacations in my life. In my opinion, the most beautiful region is the Provence. Vineyards, lavender fields, oak forests, one village is more beautiful than the other. The people are super relaxed, the food is simply delicious. Weekly markets, flea markets, concerts, artist villages. Culturally, there is so much going on there. And don't forget the nougat and candied fruit, which I can't get enough of😂 I went there for the first time with my parents. I see the region as a second home. Because I was there every summer in my youth for 4-6 weeks, I have so many fond memories that I associate with this region. There's just something about sitting on the terrace under the plane trees with friends until late in the evening, drinking a little wine, having fun, and enjoying the food. Or when you walk to the bakery in the morning and get a still warm baguette with croissants. The French simply know how to live and enjoy life.
We bought a vacation house on the shore of riviera some years ago and now have been living permanently for last three years. I still have not discovered the lavender fields. I even have a cutting board with that picture and still haven’t seen it myself. And this is true about villages - u go to any village or a small town, they are all beautiful
@@bambinaforever1402 In august you must go to Sault to the lavender festival. The lavender fields in front of the mountain panorama of Mont Ventoux must have seen once😉👌
I'm agree with you...👍
Le continent Européen est magnifique
As someone from Belgium, I feel blessed having endless amount of options to visit in France alone, over my 21 years I've been to nearly all of these locations
@D H but then I was french
@D H Belgian are our cousins they're aren't french but they're always welcome home >
j'espère que t'as bien aimé Saint-Raphaël, j'habitais là-bas avant mes études
@@LuffyL-ch1ku HAHAHA bien vu
French Alps looks wow

France is the most beautiful country yes❤
I love this video. I'm from England and my family have been luck to visit France almost every year since I was 6 (I'm 32 now) it has to be one of my favourite countries in the world. Some places I've visited and loved are Pont-Aven and Concarneau both in brittany, Bayonne near the spanish border, the Jura mountain region especially Lons-le-Saunier and also the little ski town of Valloire in the Alps. There are too many amazing places to visit but these are some I've been to that really stuck in my mind
That’s so cool you’ve seen so much of France! I gotta visit the places you recommend when I return!
Come to visit us, you will love it
We as germans had been very often in French Jura. 🙂 I think you family loves nature as we do.
@@RyanShirley this would be a 4 weeks trip minimum... I spend two years in France during holidays in my life and I haven´t seen all... The best places are the ones far away from mas tourism and russian oligarchs. One special for you: Entreveaux 🙂
So nice to see you mentioned my region (Jura),as even french people often don't know how beautiful it is :)
En tant que française je remercie nos ancêtres d'avoir construit un des plus beau pays du monde et de m'avoir donné une si belle culture et le gout de la liberté de là viens ma fierté d'etre française MERCI pour tous ses beaux compliments ❤
Oh my god. Mont Saint Michel is just so surreal! It's really something straight out of a fantasy novel!
I completely agree, I haven’t seen anything that compares to it! Truly magical
@@RyanShirley On a full moon night, you should see the illuminated cloister of Mont St Michel. From the coast it looks like a vessel floating in the sky.
I'm french and thanks you for this video. This makes it possible to make foreigners aware of the beauty of our country. People tend to judge our country to quickly
Ohhh! BRITTANY, Les belles plages comme au Caraïbes, L'eau turquoise et sable blanc. J'adore BREST pour ses randonnée👟, L'Aquarium 🐡🐠🐟, Le Château🏰, La Plongée🤿 sports nautiques🏄♀️⛵et autres Musées...
Brittany is a wonder!
As a french and an architecture lover, I just wanted to thank you for such a highlight. I have visited most of the places you show here, and it's so satisfying to see that even in my lifetime, I still have so may things to discover in my own country. And then there's the rest of the world. My god, it's so fascinating to live in such a wonderful world 🙂
Guadeloupe, Martinique ? Réunion ? Tahiti ? French Guiana ? New Caledonia ? It's a shame that this video is only centered on the hexagon (France metropolis)
Very beautiful country, so many regions and impressive scenery! Good to see many parts of France where the fantastic French culture still exists. That's what we want to see on holiday!
There's no "French culture", there are many French cultures.
Geographically France is situated between Southern and Northern Europe, it borders with countries as different as Belgium, Germany, Italy, Spain.... and Luxembourg, Switzerland and Andorra... and you can see the coast of England from the cliffs near Calais. I therefore agree with Charles here that you have cultural differences within the common "French pot", according to the region of France you're in. But everywhere in France we all LOVE our bread😉 .
@@jfrancobelge Perfectly explained Jacques :)
Yes it was a really great video
@@charles1413 No, there IS a French culture.
Fantastic video with beautiful places in France. For me , France is the most beautiful place in Europe because of its big diversity. France reunites everything you need in a single country! I went to the aiguille du midi two weeks ago but I came from Italy in Courmayeur. Courmayeur has a cable car that brings you to the punta helbronner on 3400 m. From there you can take another cable car that brings you to the aiguille du midi and on the way it passes over the huge glaciers of the mont blanc. It's the most beautiful and impressive landscape that I've ever seen. Every is made of ice and snow right to the horizon! The ride lasts half an hour and you have such a spectacular view on the glaciers. The cable car goes to the aiguille du midi and back to the punta helbronner in an hour. If you didn't take that cable car, I can say to you that you've missed the best thing to do. Unfortunately the aiguille du midi was surrounded by clouds when I was there so I couldn't see so much. But on the cable car that connects the punta helbronner to the aiguille du midi there weren't any clouds. I think there is nothing more spectacular in the mountains than that.
That’s so cool you did the gondola from Italy! It was closed when I was there in May but I gotta go back to do it!
I just did the TMB and also went to courmayeur and aiguille du midi
Wow! I did exactly the same as you!
Francs and The French are great. Hope to get to visits again soon. Much respect from Denmark 🇫🇷 🇩🇰
I never get tired of France. There’s just so much to explore and so much beauty that shows itself in diverse ways. My first time visiting Paris I was fairly underwhelmed but when I went back last summer I discovered a new love for it. It is amazing in and of itself. Lyon was a new city for me last year and I fell in love with it: I love the contrast between the ancient architecture and the 1950s modern-era architecture at Part-Dieu downtown, not to mention its ruins, its massive city park, and the unbelievable views of the city at the clifftop cathedral. Dijon was pretty but I didn’t find that there was a lot to do, possibly because I was there on days when the market and the Cité de la Gastronomie were closed. Montpelier was neat. You can tell that it’s got a lot going for it and could turn into something great very soon, with the transit that they’re trying to improve and the events they’re starting to host at Comédie. Toulouse was enchanting, and next time I feel like I should visit it for longer. I have a soft spot for Bordeaux because I lived there! I know when compared to a lot of other regions, there are pros and cons, because it’s starting to get a bit touristy. But I love walking along Les Quais, and I spent whole days visiting these gorgeous parks that have ridiculously understated names (Bordeaux Park, Big Park, Public Garden, etc.). It was my first love in France. Thanks for your beautiful cinematography, Ryan! Just makes us all salivate at the natural beauty of this wonderful land.
What's next ? As a French from Metropolitan France, I'd love to see more of Overseas France as well. Polynesian atolls, the Amazonian forest, Caribbean beaches, North Atlantic fishermen villages, Indian Oceans volcanos, South Pacific lagoons, etc.
My beloved France. Oh! Ma douce France cher pays de mon enfance. Translation: Oh! My sweet France dear country of my childhood. It's a very famous song about our old France.
I'm learning french and hoping to visit France some day! J'adore français!!
"J'adore le français"* We'll be glad to welcome you here!
That’s so awesome your learning French! It’s a difficult language for me to learn
There are SO many magical and wonderful places to visit in France including the beautifully preserved town of Sarlat.
I gotta visit Sarlat next time

Thanks for this amazing video ! I have traveled the world and all continents. I can confirm that there is no country in the world which can compete with France beauty. Next time I invite you to visit overseas France : French Polynesia, Guadeloupe, Martinique, St Barthelemy, St Pierre & Miquelon, French Guyana, Wallis & Futuna, Reunion island… France landscapes, gastronomy and people are so diverse ! 🇫🇷
Je suis française et je découvre avec vous ces merveilleux paysages. Merci !

@@lvvlvv1746 How is it in Crimea ? Can I ask you your views on the current state of affairs over there ? I always wanted to visit the place but after 2014 it became complicated and here in 2022, you know the situation, thx

@@x-a- Hi, so far everything is quiet, but there is an alarm.
Old Brit who has lived in France for 40 years ,Paris,village opposit Mont St Michel and now Nice ...and raised a family and yes France is one of the most beautiful and diverse countries in the world ! I also have visited all these regions and love the Atlantic coast ! Of course people were going to complain that you hadn't covered other regions but hey if they had listened carefully they would have heard your comment at the end "I'm barely scratching the surface !!"❤
I have never been in France, thanks for this informative and beautiful video. Amazing scenery, breathtaking views, great job!
France is waiting for you :) Where would you want to visit most there?
@@RyanShirley Nature is my favorite part in the world, so maybe I’ll start from Mont Blanc 🏔🙂 Hope can do it next year.
It was a so nice video
@@worldwalkerwoman So? Did you?!
I love your videos I’m sure it takes a lot of hard work to make them so I wanted to say thank you! I know so much about France now 🙏
As a French from Paris, I loved your video, great work. I must admit that I was surprised not to see the “Provence region ” it’s s where they produced most of the scents for our famous perfumes such as Dior,Channel… with all the flowers roses,lavender,jasmine,orange flowers…the lighting ,the colours inspired many great painters Paul Cézanne,Van Gogh….and the “basque region” is also exceptional.😊 I have to say that Your work as a filmmaker is incredible, the lighting and your shooting all together are impressive. you really have a great eye for it. Congrats.
Very nice video. France is so diverse in landscape and climates. As you covered Mediterranea, Alps, Brittany, Loire Valley, Alsace, Paris, I would add Massif Central, the old volcanic mountains in the center. The view of the alignment of volcanoes from Puy Ste Marie is awesome. Also, a very specific region is Basque country, combining impressive seashore, mountains and a strong and original culture.
Guadeloupe, Martinique ? Réunion ? Tahiti ? French Guiana ? New Caledonia ? It's a shame that this video is only centered on the hexagon (France metropolis)
@@elpass8388 Each oversea place deserves a mention. But it makes sense to propose places of the same location to tourists.
There's a reason why France has so many tourists !
Pretty easy to see why ☺️
Because of the food
As someone who lives in Paris, I'm very glad that you don't only focus on Paris but also other beautiful areas of France!!!
I watch a lot of travel videos on KZhead and this one has been of the best videos I have seen. The places are incredibly beautiful! Thank you for showing us all these parts of France and for being on point when explaining.
Thanks so much Amani, I try to make the best content ☺️ where are you from?
I agree 100 per 100 with you
@@RyanShirley I’m from Saudi Arabia but currently in France for a couple of months for work.
You could easily do another 25 places to visit in France. A couple of my personal favourites would be the Dune du Pilat near Bordeaux (Europe's biggest sand dune), the war graves in Normandy (especially for WW2 buffs) and St. Malo, a pretty seaside town in Brittany.
I gotta go back and visit all your recommendations! I really want to see Dune du Pilat!
@@RyanShirley there is also volcanos in the massif central
When we tend to forget how diverse our country is it's nice to see a video like yours :) I'm glad you enjoyed France and were able to travel a lot around the country! Obviously some places are missing, but it's hard to go over everything. I grew up in the Pyrenees and now live in the Alps, but I still feel like I only discovered a tiny part of these regions ahah
Francia, un país maravilloso. París la ciudad que más me gusta, Louvre, Impresionistas. Oh la la.
Muchas gracias Rafael! Paris es lo mejor! Y amo el Lourve también
There are so much wonderful places to visit in France that you can make 100 others videos like this one !
I made this video on France’s top 100 you might enjoy ☺️ kzhead.info/sun/pN2CmauQp5ZvlKc/bejne.html
Bro I am 19 years old now and i would like to explore like you across the world but i can't explore like you because I don't have money so I will explore in future whenever i have money
Bask Country is definitely a must see ! It's no less than the Pyrénées Mountains falling in the Atlantic Ocean. I recommend the otherworldly Gorges de Kakuetta with La Verna Caves, all the area near Sainte Engrace, La Rhune, Itxassou, and all the colourful villages. Also the food is amazing !
j'suis revenu d'Espagne j'a mangé de l'axoa dans un petit resto à Espelette sur le retour, je me suis régalé comme rarement, mais mieux vaut aller dans les terres, la côte fait trop bling bling
Basque
I am French, thank you for this beautiful video. There is still so much to visit! La Rochelle, Saint Malo, the central massif, the Dordogne, the Quercy, the Basque Country.... Come back often!
I really want to visit Saint Malo! What part of France are you from?
I just watched a clip about Paris by a local from Holland a few weeks ago and thought nah not good enough to travel there until I stumbled on your clip. Truly amazing country!
That’s what I love to hear! There’s so much to see outside of paris
I need to see soon this beautiful impressive place 🇫🇷
France is waiting for you!
I never been in France , but thank you for the wonderful tour . we have best idea when i come to visit this place.
Thanks so much Aubrey! Where would you want to visit most in France?
Such a beautiful film! I never knew France has incredible landscape in addition to cute towns and castles!
Thank you sooo much for your visit and your video. As a French person, i'm really greatful for this beautiful and flattering travel story. next time you must visit Bordeau, L'ile de Ré, and Belle Ile (arrrrrr Brittany ... my favorite).
Other beautiful places to visit in Britanny that I absolutly love: the towns of Concarneau, Lannion, Paimpol and Saint Malo all have medieval centers that are really well preserved and a wonder to walk around. In inner Britanny, the Monts d'Arrée is a very old montain range with a beautiful forest and looks very enchanting when it's all foggy.
As a breton thank you for mentioning this
Guadeloupe, Martinique ? Réunion ? Tahiti ? French Guiana ? New Caledonia ? It's a shame that this video is only centered on the hexagon (France metropolis)

What a nice surprise to see at the end of the video some images of the too little known Puy en Velay. Also come and visit Lyon, Cap Ferret, Puy de Dome, la Venise Verte de Poitier ....
It's just great..the cinematography, the background music ,the voice over and of course the wide range of places you covered, from less popular to most popular one..👍🏻
Thanks so much Priya for your kind words
exactly
Spectacular video! I Particularly enjoyed Normandy and visiting the memorials and landing beaches.
That’s so cool you were in Normandy, I need to visit the landing beaches next time.
France is so beautiful! 🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷 Merry Christmas to all my friends😊😊💕💕💕
I subscribed a while back, never received ANY notifications of your videos. This was recommended by YT. Absolutely, stunning! I felt like, I just been on holiday after watching your videos. I've been to France, twice, never went outskirts of Paris as well as other surrounding cities. Thanks for sharing!
I’m so glad the video popped up in your feed! Hope you can go back soon! I got some great videos coming up
I have just skimmed over some comments and yes of course not all the beauties of France are there. but guys, give him a break! He did a very good job. he can do another trip!
In this amazing video, I like traveling in France. I want to travel to France. my younger brother went to France. he said to me "its country is amazing". Exactly I will go to travel to France🤧
What part of France would you want to visit most? 😁🇫🇷
I do like the Provence and Camargue regions. There is also other stuff to see: Prehistorical caves -> 34K old paintings (only a few original caves are still open) Antic Roman construction -> theater, arena, aqueduc The dune of Pilat -> start of a desert Massif central -> Extinct volcanos Extra continental regions -> French Polynesia, Réunion, New-Calédonie, French Guyana... Hundreds of small fairytales villages and more
All amazing suggestions ☺️
@@RyanShirley 😄 Thank you for the video btw. It feels good to see pretty images of where I grew up. edit: I just saw on the news, the canyon and lac dont have any water left....
Thank you for bring these places into our homes. Images we just cant imagine but with your help this is possible.
Of course Leovany! I hope you can France visit one day ☺️
so true
Thanks for such an uplifting adventure which thoroughly immmersed me in the awe inspiring beauty and intrigue of France!! Mont Saint Michel is insane!! Peace from Oz
Of course! Mont Saint Michel is truly on another level
I wondered what you'd include in your Top 25 since there are so many wonderful places in France. Of course there are the big three, Paris, the Loire Valley and the Riviera, but you did a great job including most of the rest of the country. Interesting to start in Etretat in Normandy since that area along with Picardy are often missed. Also glad you included the Pyrenees region and Brittany with its megalithic monuments. I'm looking forward to seeing what you include in part two.
Thanks so much John! You always write the best comments. I really wanted to focus more on places such a Normandy, Dinan, wild horses of Camargue, and Provence but I ran out of time! I’ll try to do a top 100 France video by the end of the year 😁🇫🇷
@@RyanShirley That will be great. The villages of Provence, are my favorite part of France, away from the coast and mostly built on hilltops. It's a wonderful area in summer. There's Rousillon with it's red earth, Isle Sur La Sorgue with its canals, beautiful Bonnieux, quiet Goult with no big tourist attractions, Gordes with its medieval chateaux and more. This year it's too hot and there are fires but usually summer here is heaven on earth. The Rhone Valley is nice too. Have fun whatever you do!
Mont st Michel is also in Normandy and is never missed ;)
yep a breath taking video
Guadeloupe, Martinique ? Réunion ? Tahiti ? French Guiana ? New Caledonia ? It's a shame that this video is only centered on the hexagon (France metropolis)
Wonderful France ! So many amazing places are waiting to explore 😊 Strasbourg is one of these beautiful places I've visited :) Really great video! Thank you!

Strasbourg la meilleure ville de France, 67 rpz
for sure he does a great work
Thanks so much for this video. I’m planning a month in France and this was extremely helpful 🙏🏽. Looking forward to part 2.
Ty so much for the videos. I like the natural wonders and history. I'm going on a 35 day vacation mid October and I'm making notes from all your videos. I'm going to Spain France Switzerland Italy and Greece.
Wow you’re going to have a trip of a lifetime!
C'est fou, la diversité des paysages en France
Another great video Ryan Thanks for taking us along for trip
Thanks so much Bill!
Stunning Castle and magical country.
France really is magical!
Thank you for the video, I recently been to France September last year. The Mont Saint Michel, Chateau Channeson , Nice brings back good memories.
So cool you were there! Hard to beat the magic of mont Saint Michel!
Such a great video as always! Your photos are phenomenal keep up the awesome work Ryan!
Thanks so much brother! Where’s your favorite place in France?
i liked your reaction on this video ! as i liked the original too !
@@RyanShirley Visiting Normandy and other historical sites has been my favorite! Your footage of Mont Saint Michel definitely has added something to my bucket list though. Love your videos man!
Awesome video Ryan. Definitely the best travel cinematography on youtube. Great research and unique locations 🤙
Thanks so much brother! Any place you want to visit most?
@@RyanShirley The calanques and alps have always interested me...but after seeing your video. The Esteral coast near Cannes and the Louire Valley are both now at the top of the list. Those chateaus and red rocks are mind blowing. Thanks again for the great video 💯
and breath taking too
French kiss and French 🍟 ....wow Enjoy and keep enjoying everything whatever comes in your Life 🧬🧬🧬🧬. I pray for all of you.
Thank you for sharing sir Ryan Shirley...gb you always ! 🥰🥰🥰
Of course! I’m so glad you watched it
I love your videos!! Please do a tier-ranking of all the countries you've visited 🙏
Ok I’ll start thinking of ideas! Switzerland is number one 😁
exactly
Such beautiful country
Guadeloupe, Martinique ? Réunion ? Tahiti ? French Guiana ? New Caledonia ? It's a shame that this video is only centered on the hexagon (France metropolis)
I really need to thank you for this beautiful video. I even discovered some places that I didn't know before. You have given my country an exceptional advertising, thank you very much.
Thanks so much Adrien! I’m just happy you enjoyed it
I'm glad you picked Etretat as your first spot. That's where my wife and I spent our honeymoon back in the days.
That’s such a incredible place to go on a honeymoon! Such a magical place
I love these Videos! Definitely gonna take some place into my planing when i go to France 😄
Ah amazing ☺️ where do you want to visit most? 🇫🇷
Very nice such a beautiful country France 🇨🇵... you did a good job Ryan..I appreciate your hard work.. in my opinion you are the best youtuber in the world..
Thanks so much Anandha!
@@RyanShirley you are welcome 🤗
I was there two months ago! Beautiful.. get to the top hill by stairs was so out of breathe! Normandy coast.
Wow! Great footage.... I am French and I live in France.... but most these places I never went to. I married an American and I am going to show this video to him as he is hard to get up and go but this will convince him! Thanks
Crazy how you can pin point nearly everywhere in France and it's super beautiful with old stones and history. The same goes with Italy. You cannot go less then 1 month in these countries without missing a lot of what it has to offer
Thanks so much! I totally agree, one month isn’t enough, you could spend a lifetime exploring France and Italy.
❤❤❤
Incredible , cannot wait for part two!
Coming soon 😁🇫🇷
me too ;)
Amazing video, bringing awesome pictures of all these beautiful places.
Thanks so much friend!
I'm in France for the summer and will for sure check these out thanks Ryan
I’m jealous! Where’s been your favorite place?
The way you've presented my country is impressive. Awsome video ! Now I'll watch your videos when I'll travel in other countries
Thanks so much brother! What part of France are you from?
@@RyanShirley south of Paris in Essonne, not the best to visit, but I travelled a lot with my family/ friends. Or school (to visit the differents Châteaux of France)
tout à fait d'accord avec toi
Awesome video :D As a French I am glad people can witness how awesome this country is. You can definitely do a part 2 with as many amazing places !
Thanks so much Siana! Any places you recommend?
@@RyanShirley I would definitely recommend a 'cularinary roadtrip' to Lyon, the gastromic capital of France. It's also a super cute city with the secret 'traboule' places, the inviting barges, the Croix-Rousse neighbourhood, the infamous optical illusions on the buildings walls and so many more :3 Around Lyon you can then do the "Route des vins de la vallée du Rhône", which is a wine tour of the best wines of France. If you continue south of Lyon you'll encounter the "Palais Idéal du Facteur Cheval", I'll let you google it, it's an ovni of a building creation. I'm not originated from the Rhone region but I fell in love with it !! Tbh there are awesome things to visit in every region. The Ardeche region which is nearby the Rhone one is a treasure of natural landscape. Hope it'll inspire you ;)
@@SI4NA I allow myself to add a comment too, because I know a lot of places in France underrated, which nevertheless deserve the visit ! For example : -Castles : Pierrefonds, Chantilly, Fontainebleau, Vaux-le-Vicomte, Beynac, Saumur, Palace of popes of Avignon -Cathedrals : Rouen, Amiens, Reims, Albi -Medievals and historicals cities/villages : Bordeaux, Rouen, Collonge-la-rouge, Conques, Sarlat, Roussillon, or Dinan :)
@@guiorl2882 I'm from Compiègne so I definitely recommend it as well as Pierrefonds/Chantilly ! Amiens has a small but very cute & atypical center, as well as the infamous "floating gardens" which are the hortillonnages
I would recommend the tiny medieval village of Saorge near Nice, it's hidden in the mountain and does not have a lot of inhabitants but they're all really nice, there is even two or three restaurants that are quite good. Also walk around in every path because it's always really cool, even at night. They also have an annual tradition in the village where they all gather around one big and old furnace to make pies for all the people to eat. At the top of the village there is also a good looking monastery. Stay there one or two days is perfect.
This is a great presentation of our country, wonderful images ! You should try "la Sologne" for your next visit. It's a geographical region with forest and lakes near the loire valley. So much hiking trail through the woods !
Such a great video!!!‼️🎉
So many amazing memories made 🇫🇷♥️
Francia tiene todo 🇫🇷♥️🏔🏖🏰
Eso es cierto ☺️
WOW fantastique! Oh and I lived in Chamonix for many years. Great coverage of the area and those incredible mountains🙏
I’m jealous you lived in Chamonix! Is there any other places you recommend in the French alps?
Beautiful video Ryan. France is truly fascinating. And yet, you have so much more to explore!!!😊😊😊
Thanks so much Djemo! We should explore the French alps
I agree 100 per 100 with you
Vive la France 🇫🇷
You forgot to say about how Colmar inspired Miyazaki for his town designs such as in Moving Castle, some buildings even copied from reality
Thanks for the suggestions - we’re off to France again in May, touring in my Jag, and we’re doing the eastern side this time. We get the train or ferry and just meander, so it’s always great to receive suggestions - not that I’ve ever been disappointed by anywhere in France!
Of course! You’re going to have a amazing time. I love eastern France
You are a BEAUTIFUL CREATOR and your VISION displays it's self. BRAVO.
Thanks so much William!
