Of the many things that one can do in France, some of them are boating, touring, motoring, cycling, water sports, skiing, visiting beaches, golfing, partying, visiting museums & art galleries, horse riding & of course exploring the rich cultural heritage of France. France is also an ideal place for people who want to know & understand the history of Europe. It has some well renowned schools with heritage areas & a few pilgrimage sites. Museum of Great War & cutlery museum & museum of war & peace at Champagne are good places to go to.

France is a place where natural beauty sprawls in its most beautiful forms. Lakes, beaches, gorges, parks, forests & valleys add to the charm of the place. Corsica is more like a Mediterranean island, Verdon is nice for climbers, Brittany is famous for its marshy coasts, Midi Pyrenees has best of the nature parks, Brenne is called the land of thousand lakes & is very rich in aquatic flora & fauna, Loire valley is known for its architecture & heritage, Auvergne has been the place of volcanoes & lakes, Pornic has a port, castle & nice beaches, Chamonix is good for voyagers who prefer outdoor activities & Alsace is where one can go around forests or walk pats vineyards.
