Le Dorat and the Limousin

Some websites for tourist attractions near us in the Limousin, as well as some others that may be of interest:

www.ledorat.com   This site will tell you (in French) about our 'cité de caractère' of Le Dorat and its Collégiale.

www.the-limousin.co.uk   A complete guide to the Limousin Region, in English.

www.ville-limoges.fr   All the information you will need for visiting the lovely city of Limoges (with an English version). Includes details of the enamel and porcelain museums.

www.musee-adriendubouche.fr   Interesting and informative website of the National Porcelain Museum mentioned above.

www.ot-poitiers.fr   A comprehensive guide to Poitiers, the capital of the neighbouring Poitou-Charentes region, again with an (almost) English version.

www.parczooreynou.com   A delightful zoo, just south of Limoges and a good place to take a picnic.

www.geantsduciel.com   The fabulous bird show set in the medieval castle at Chauvigny (about a 45 minute drive).

www.la-vallee-des-singes.fr   'Singe' is the French word for Monkey. And there are plenty of them here to look at! Again, not far to go.

www.futuroscope.com   The giant high-tech film park, just to the north of Poitiers and easily reachable in a day trip.

www.hautevienne.moonfruit.com   A website put together by a talented photographer friend of ours, with some interesting pictures of Le Dorat (almost as good as mine) and the local area.
