A film about the Languedoc

The Languedoc regionCreissan, a very charming French village, lies between the Mountains of the 'Parc Naturel' and the Mediterranean beaches, a 25-minute drive to either, and settled amongst vineyards as far as the eye can see, this is truly a unique setting for exploring this region, with rivers that cascade down to the sea, providing water activities, ranging from canoeing and rafting, to leisurely canal trips on the famous Canal du Midi.The whole area is steeped in history, the remains of which can be seen in its cities and towns, and the chateaux abbeys and monasteries.Languedoc has seen some turbulent changes throughout the centuries, its very proximity to Spain (only 85 miles away from Creissan) has ensured a diversification of contact, both cultural and linguistic, with a strong Catalonian connexion, that is noticeable in the features and the characteristics of the local people.Languedoc, now though, is becoming recognised as a tourist destination for millions of visitors, as its reputation testifies, there is so much to discover, the region offers a huge variety of interests for many tastes, 150 miles of stunning coastline, water sports, culture, cuisine, and not forgetting the wines, and with accessibility made easy via good roads, railways, and airports, (sometimes offering exceptional flight fares) you must make this your holiday choice.
