The Dordogne and Lot
& Garonne
departments stretch from the low-lying Atlantic coastal plain to the
foothills of the Massif Central on the borders with the Limousin
region. The area has long been popular with visitors from Britain,
Holland and other parts of Europe, as well as Parisians, many of whom
have retired to this part of rural France and renovated old rural
properties as gites.
In much of the region,
traditional houses are built in the local honey-coloured limestone.
Dordogne is also celebrated for its beautiful villages, castles and
also prehistoric sites including the world-famous Lascaux caves.
For the French, Dordogne - more commonly known as
Périgord
- is best known for its famous cuisine, and regional
specialities
such as paté de foie gras and truffles, walnut oil are known throughout
France and well beyond. Lot et Garonne is famous for its fruit and
vergetables, including Agen prunes and Marmande tomatoes.
