Lourdes
Lourdes is the third most popular place of catholic pilgrimage in the world after the Vatican and Mexico’s Basilica of Our Lady of Guadalupe and is visited by almost six million people each year. Ever since the appearances of the Virgin Mary to Bernadette Soubirous in 1858, the city has had to adapt to the needs of pilgrims and visitors by providing quality services and infrastructure. It is served by both a major railway station and an international airport, and only Paris has more hotels.

Luz-Saint-Sauveur - Luz Saint-Sauveur provides the ideal spot for lovers of beautiful views to take a break and savour the atmosphere in this famous climbing area. It’s also the perfect place to be reminded that this is an area where cattle breeders practise their art, so why not titillate your taste-buds with some local lamb.
Those interested in old stones may want to explore, via the winding streets, the twelfth-century fortified church of the Templars or the ruins of the tenth-century château Sainte-Marie. Or head to the Pont Napoléon where thrill-seekers can bungee jump or rock climb on the ’via ferrata’
