I know I say this everytime I visit Annecy but it really is true…this is a wonderful and interesting medieval town with so many great places to discover, shops to visit, galleries to see and historic sites to enjoy. Not to mention the absolutely stunning freshwater lake surrounded by mountain scenery. Apart from all of these reasons to visit, there is a plethora of fabulous restaurants and cafes to eat in!
