Today we visited Annecy. This is an alpine town in south-eastern France. It lies at the mouth of Lac d'Annecy. The best known is the old town with its cobblestone streets, meandering canals and pastel-colored houses. The many cafes and restaurants
invite you to linger.

Annecy - the Venice of France. Many beautiful canals run through the city. The water shimmers wonderfully green. Behind every corner there is a new impression of the place. I was really impressed by Annecy and can only recommend paying the place a visit.😉👍
