Dijon guide
Dijon is located in the eastern part of France, and is the capital of the region of Bourgogne. The city has 150,800 inhabitants (2005). Dijon is an important trade center, famous for the production and sale of Burgundy wine, liquor, mustard, vinegar etc. It is said that Dijon is one of the most beautiful cities in France, because the city avoided being destroyed by bombs during the 2nd World War. The town has many churches and cathedrals, beautiful parks, art galleries and museums. The beautiful Saint-Bénigne Cathedral (1250-1288) should be mentioned in particular. It is built in the Gothic style, with a 94 meters high tower. Dijon has otherwise – like Paris – both its Notre Dame Cathedral and its triumphal arch (Port Guillaume) ..
