🇫🇷 The Most Underrated French City: Dijon

#summervacay 📍Dijon, France | A Fairytale Hidden Gem ✨ Out of all the places I visited in France, Dijon was the one that completely stole my heart 💘. Who would've thought a last-minute addition to my itinerary would become the best surprise of my entire trip? Known as the soul of Burgundy, Dijon is a medieval dream come true — cobbled streets, colorful tiled roofs, ancient abbeys, retro trams, and that rare, peaceful charm that’s hard to find in tourist-packed cities. It felt like the whole town was reserved just for me 🏰🌿 Dijon is criminally underrated. But that’s the beauty of it — most museums and exhibitions are free, and you won’t find crowds anywhere! 📸 Walking through Dijon Old Town felt like stepping into a movie set — fairy-tale vibes with every turn: timber-framed houses, charming little shops, and zero queues or crowds. Perfect for a slow, photo-filled afternoon stroll. Must-visit highlights: ✨ Notre-Dame de Dijon — a stunning Gothic church that’s absolutely breathtaking. 🦉 Don’t forget to find and touch the little stone owl on the side of the church — legend says it brings good luck and guarantees you’ll return to Dijon! 🗺️ Try the Parcours de la Chouette (Owl Trail) — a self-guided walk that helps you discover the best of the city. #hiddengem #dijonfrance #underrateddestinations #francetravel
