About Alsace..

Alsace is located on France's eastern border and on the west bank of the upper Rhine adjacent to Germany and Switzerland.

Alsace has through its history changed hands between Germany and France on several occasions. The local culture is distinct, and the region offers historic cities and castles, and interesting countryside. A popular itinerary is the Alsatian Vineyard Route - fabulous for walking from town to town trying a whole bunch of local wines.
Alsace also has some of the most beautiful cathedrals and churches in Western Europe. The stunning Strasbourg Cathedral is a unique example of a mix of roman and gothic architecture.
Alsatian cuisine is very distinctive, strongly based on Germanic culinary traditions. The gastronomic symbol of the région is undoubtedly Sauerkraut, a word included into the French language as choucroute.
Alsace is one of the smallest regions in France, but it possesses the largest number of five-star chefs per inhabitant!
