Rodez

Rodez Cathedral

In my many years of travel, there were less known touristy places such as Rodez which I felt lucky enough to be able to visit. We came from southern france en route to Paris but had to stay overnight in the suburbs of Rodez. Didnt have much time to stroll around the city except for the Cathedral.

Rodez is situated in the heart of the Aveyron and the capital of the Rouergue. Lying in the centre of a triangle formed by Toulouse, Montpellier and Clermont-Ferrand, its geographical location makes it the focus of local representatives’ attention.

I hope to be able to visit the city one day and this time try to find the quaint old town they say is a sight to behold.

Nevers

Chapel at St. Gildard, Never

This was the place where the body of St. Bernadette Soubirous was lain before she was buried. Its located in a tiny chapel inside the Church complex of St. Gildard, Never (France).

The incorrupt body of St. Bernadette can be found inside the church. She died at age 18 thats why you will see a lovely woman dressed in a nuns habit, seemingly sleeping inside a glass coffin in the altar.

Nevers is around three hours from Paris.
