Arrival in Dijon
Enter into the city of the Dukes of Burgundy.

The Ducal palace which is now home to the Fine Arts Museum, and many more architectural interests

With this new stage you will enter the splendid landscapes of the Côte de Nuits, vineyards as far as the eye can see, typical Burgundian villages, little castles made in pink stones.
