Always enjoy Ricks TH-cam Clips from his Travel Series. Something I never tire of hearing, Travelers being advised to Visit ANY given Destination and See for Oneself. As Final Judge as to That Peoples Character, when every possible, BEST of advise going.
An 👽 dropped in Albi could be forgiven for thinking they’d landed in Tuscany; and may need to readjust their GPS system. The town on the Tarn with its crumbly red-brick cityscape is a gorgeous place. Sure, it feels like (is) a provincial backwater where even the bees take things easy, but that doesn’t detract one iota from its langourous pulchritude. The key to it, for me, is the harmony of its central old core. Sure, the old cathedral looks like a big dominant blunder on the hill (it’s nicer inside), seemingly overwhelming the town with its generous bulk, but I assure you, stand up close to it, and you will have a new respect for cathedral builders. My one and only complaint about Albi, aside from the cathedral-on-steroids, is the lack of a central square. I searched in vain for an open suntrap spot to while away an afternoon sipping pastis and (pretending I was) insouciantly smoking a Gauloise. Luckily, Montauban, Albi’s near-neighbour, in film-setesque Place Nationale, was able to provide that square Albi was lacking.

I was in that cathedral last year. Couldn't help notice that all the women in that weird wall painting were pregnant.
