Very nice bridge. Decent bike crossing with a cycle lane on either side of the road, but shared with cars.

Small village with a bar/small restaurant on the waterfront in season

LI Xiaochao, a contemporary Chinese sculptor, uses the art of sculpture to reproduce the vivid image of an old porcelain craftsman in the countryside of northern China in the last century. Blue and white porcelain is a kind of high-temperature underglaze porcelain with blue and white porcelain originating in China and traveling all over the world. Blue and white porcelain has played an important role in world exchanges, mutual learning between civilizations and sharing beauty.

This bridge is impressive - even with a bike lane! The bridge is uphill until the middle, then downhill!

This magnificent church in Briare was dedicated to the patronage of "Saint-ETIENNE". He was one of the first seven deacons of the original Jerusalem community and, according to the biblical accounts in the "New Testament", was also the first martyr (martyr) of early Christianity. The church commemorates his death on the second day of Christmas, December 26th. As the Acts of the Apostles report: When Stephen expressed his vision of the open heavens, "But he, filled with the Holy Spirit, looked up into heaven and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing at the right hand of God" (Chapter 7, Verse 55), the people were so outraged that they drove him out of the city and stoned him.

This Roman-Byzantine style church was inaugurated in 1895. It was built with the help of workers from the Briare earthenware factory who were inspired by Saint Sophia of Constantinople. It has the Romanesque dome and vault. And the earthenware tiles that pave the floors deserve attention.

The port is located near the north bank of the Loire, and the Briare canal bridge to which it is connected via the Loire lateral canal.
