Bonjour travelers, welcome back to the channel. Today we are exploring France like never before. From magical villages and sunny beaches to mountain adventures and hidden gems you’ve never heard of. Stay till the end for a bonus destination that will take your breath away. Let’s dive into the top 10 places you must visit in France in 2025. Of course, we begin in Paris, the heart and soul of France. Whether it’s watching the Eiffel Tower sparkle at night, exploring the art treasures of the Louvre, or enjoying a coffee in Monatra, Paris never loses its charm. It’s a city that continuously reinvents itself while honoring its magnificent past. But in 2025, I encourage you to go beyond the usual tourist trail. Witness the incredible restoration of Notre Dame, a symbol of resilience and artistry. Take a leisurely stroll along the newly redesigned Sen Riverwalks, feeling the pulse of the city from a fresh perspective. And for a truly local experience, seek out Paris’s hidden gardens like the Jardan de Rosier Joseph Minor. Little pockets of tranquility tucked away from the bustling crowds. These moments are what make a trip to Paris truly unforgettable. Next stop, Proce, where endless lavender fields and golden sunlight create pure magic. Imagine driving through rolling hills, the air filled with the scent of lavender, a sea of purple stretching to the horizon. This region is a sensory overload in the best possible way. Wander through the cobbled streets of Gourds and Rousong, stone villages that seem to have grown out of the very earth they stand on. Explore the vibrant colorful markets where you can find everything from local produce to artisal crafts. And of course, no visit to Provence is complete without tasting a crisp, fresh rosé wine under the warm Mediterranean sun. It’s more than just a place. It’s a feeling. Provence is the absolute definition of summer perfection. From there we head to the French Riviera or Koti Azour where the sparkling sea meets pure sophistication. This legendary coastline is all about glamour and breathtaking beauty. From the high-end luxury of Monaco with its famous casino and harbor full of super yachts to the sundrenched beaches of Nice and the film star charm of Can, every corner glitters with possibility. It’s a place to see and be seen, but it also has its quiet, magical corners. Don’t miss the hidden coastal town of Ez perched high on a cliff above the Mediterranean. Wandering its narrow medieval alleyways feels like stepping back in time, and the views from its exotic garden are simply a dream. Ready for a fairy tale? Let’s step into the Lir Valley, home to France’s most stunning chateau. This region is a living story book where magnificent castles with soaring turrets and elegant gardens line the serene Lir River. It’s not just about history. It’s about experiencing the romance of the French countryside. Picture yourself cycling through lush vineyards, the sun warming your face, or gently floating in a hot air balloon as the morning mist clears, revealing the majestic Chateau de Shambbor below. You can explore royal gardens at Chateau de Villandri that looks straight out of a painting. The Lir is France’s elegant countryside at its absolute best, offering a perfect blend of grandeur and tranquility. Now for a place that feels truly otherworldly, M San Michichelle. This is a marvel of both architecture and nature. A medieval abbey that seems to rise magically from the sea. Perched on a rocky island, its silhouette is one of the most iconic sites in all of France. The real magic happens with the tides. At high tide, the causeway disappears and it looks like the entire abbey is floating on water. It’s a breathtaking spectacle that changes with the light. My advice, visit either early in the morning to beat the crowds and see it shrouded in mist, or stay for sunset to watch the sky paint a stunning backdrop. It’s an unforgettable view that feels like a pilgrimage through time. Wine lovers, this one’s for you. Welcome to Bordeaux, the undisputed wine capital of the world. But this city offers so much more than just its worldclass vintages. Bordeaux is a vibrant, beautiful city full of art, bustling markets, and stunning riverside beauty. The historic center is a UNESCO World Heritage site with elegant limestone buildings and charming squares perfect for exploring. Of course, you must tour the legendary vineyards of the Maidok or Santa Million and taste the region s best blends right at the source, but then come back to the city and enjoy a glorious sunset by the Garon River, perhaps with a glass of that very wine in hand. It’s the perfect end to a perfect day. Next, we journey to Alsas, a region that feels like it’s been lifted straight out of a story book. Nestled on the border with Germany, Alsas has a unique culture and architecture all its own. Your first stop has to be Kmar with its fairy tale pastel houses, intricate timber frames, and flower-filled canals that have earned it the nickname Little Venice. Then visit Strasburg, the region’s capital, and stand in awe of its grand Gothic Cathedral. If you’re visiting in winter, the cozy Christmas markets here are some of the most magical in Europe. Alsace offers that quintessential French charm, but with a delightful touch of German flavor that makes it truly special. Calling all adventurers, she nestled in the heart of the French Alps is your ultimate playground. This town is a must visit for anyone who loves the great outdoors. The energy here is electric with thrillsekers from all over the world coming to conquer the mountains. The highlight is taking the Aguil Dumidi cable car to the summit for jaw-dropping panoramic views of Mlancc and the surrounding peaks. It’s a view that will truly take your breath away. Whether you’re here to ski worldass slopes in the winter, hike scenic trails in the summer, or just relax in a cozy alpine chalet surrounded by majestic snowcapped peaks. Shamane delivers an unforgettable adventure. Let’s escape to an island of untamed beauty. Corsica. Rugged, wild, and absolutely stunning, this Mediterranean gem offers a different side of France. It’s a paradise for nature lovers. Combining dramatic landscapes with pristine coastlines. From swimming in turquoise waters at beaches like Palumbajia to hiking challenging mountain trails on the famous GR20 route, the island offers the perfect blend of relaxation and adventure. One place you cannot miss is Bonafasio, a spectacular cliffside town that seems to defy gravity. Its ancient houses perched precariously over the deep blue sea. Corsica is a destination that will captivate your soul and leave you wanting more. If you travel for food, then Lion is your heaven on earth. Known far and wide as France’s culinary capital. This is where you’ll find the most authentic and delicious French cuisine. The city is a food lovers paradise. From gourmet Michelin starred dining to the cozy traditional bushons that serve hearty local specialties. But the culinary journey doesn’t stop there. Explore the vibrant Lehal Paul Bokuz, a legendary indoor food market to sample the region’s finest cheeses, shakuerie, and pastries. Beyond the food, get lost in Von, the old town, and discover its trabools, secret covered passageways that wind through the buildings, revealing hidden courtyards and a glimpse into the city’s unique history. And now for our bonus stop, the enchanting town of Anacei. Often called the Venice of the Alps, this is a postcard perfect destination that will steal your heart. Imagine canals winding through a medieval old town lined with pastel colored houses and overflowing flower boxes. The town sits on the edge of Lake Anacey whose crystal clearar turquoise water is said to be the cleanest in Europe. Surrounded by dramatic mountain views, it’s a place of incredible natural beauty. Whether you’re cycling around the lake, paddling on its pristine waters, or simply enjoying a gelato by the canal, Anacey is the perfect destination for a relaxing and romantic escape in 2025.
