What's so interesting about Luz?
Toulouse is also a tourist and commercial city, receiving 75 million tourists every year. Located between the Mediterranean Sea and the Atlantic coast, as the capital of the Pyrenees and a city in full bloom, its charm comes not only from its colorful history, but also from its activities closely linked to the future: four universities, 25 higher vocational colleges and cutting-edge technologies (Airbus Industrial Company, Aerospace Research Center, National Meteorological Center and National Aerospace Research Center), which attract students from all over the world.

church

The trip started in South Church, Seinsell. This is a masterpiece of Roman art and the largest rectangular church in Europe. Claude Nougaro, a Toulouse poet, shouted: "South Church, Sainsere is like a coral flower watered by the sun, illuminating the whole sky." This square masonry church is a place of pilgrimage for many believers, and its structure embodies the miracle of balance and harmony. Visit here at night and you will find another gesture of the church.

There is Sainsere South Cafe in the square, which is frequented by college students and artists, where you can taste delicious onion soup. Go on, and you will reach Toler Street, where you can see the typical features of old Toulouse. This area is very lively, and there are many university cafes around. You can order a cup of mint tea and slowly experience the unique flavor of the old city with the music of Gainsbourg. Not far away are the city library and Sainsere South Middle School, and the Church of Our Lady of Raytheon, built entirely of square bricks, is famous for its exquisite decoration.

Town Hall Square

The town hall square is a place where Toulouse people often meet and meet. I looked up and saw a huge cross embedded in the center of the square, with twelve constellations at its end. The town hall on the east side of the square can be visited for free, and the Hall of Fame introduces the glorious history of Toulouse. Leave the city hall square and walk south to St. Roman Street, which is an ancient road running through the north and south of the city. Now it has become a pedestrian street with many shops.

Tourists and Toulouse locals like to patronize the shops here, buy an egg pancake, stir-fried chestnuts and the like, or have a drink in a nearby alley. ...

museum

There are too many museums in Toulouse, and only three representative ones are recommended here: Austin Museum (ticket: 2.40 euros), where visitors can wander around the most beautiful monasteries in 14 and 15 century; The Battlefield Museum (address: No.76, Charles Defeytes Road, ticket: 6. 10 Euro) mainly displays modern and contemporary art works, with an exhibition hall area of more than 6,000 square meters, where there are both perennial exhibitions and temporary exhibitions. There are works by Brassay, Cesar, Dubois or Duchamp in the museum. Finally, I would like to recommend Shuibao Photography Exhibition Hall (address: Lacana Square, ticket: 2.50 euros), which is the oldest and most popular photography exhibition hall in Europe.

If Paris represents romance and fashion in France, Toulouse, like other southern cities in France, exudes a natural and quaint atmosphere. For me, it may be more French than Paris-there are vineyards everywhere, and the largest castle in Europe is full of European pastoral scenery.

space city

Toulouse is also the headquarters of Airbus, the world's largest aircraft manufacturer. The A380 aircraft ordered by many countries, including China, will also be assembled in Toulouse factory. But for the city of Gasconi, the sky is not wide enough. To understand this, you must visit the space city here (open every day except Monday; Opening hours: 9: 00-18: 00; Admission: adult 12 euro, child 9 euro). Visitors can see the huge rocket model in the park from a distance. This is a place to discover, experiment and understand the universe. It consists of three parts: a park, a planetarium and an exhibition hall. The Ariane 5 rocket model in the park is the prototype of Kourou (French Guiana), made in the same size.

planetarium

The planetarium has many devices designed with 3D programming, including a special Mars exhibition hall. There are seven exhibitions with different themes from the earth to the farthest planet in the exhibition hall, and visitors can have a broader understanding of the universe. After such weightless travel, it will be uncomfortable to return to earth. The space city is very big, so you should visit it for at least a whole afternoon, and you can eat on the spot.
