Dijon, the capital of Burgundy, is located in the eastern part of France and is the ultimate destination for culture lovers. It is a city of history and art, and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The city center is completely car-free, and you can enjoy Gothic architecture, magnificent mansions, medieval streets and, of course, the Ducal Palace.
Dijon is also a prestigious culinary destination – offering foodies much more than mustard soup… snails, crème de cassis, chocolate and plenty of wine – these are just some of the delicacies you can enjoy from the city’s world-class food and wine hub. Dijon also has five Michelin-starred restaurants, an impressive food market and an international food fair.
All of this makes Dijon a great base for a stargazing trip to the Burgundy region, or even a destination for a few days' excursion fromParis.
In this article you will find a series of recommended hotels in a variety of prices, which I have carefully selected for you, and which I recommend staying at during your next visit to the capital of the Dukes of Burgundy.
