French Venice... - Annecy

Annecy is a picturesque and magnificent town with the Alps in the background and the lake in the foreground.
The town is the capital of the Haute-Savoie region of eastern France and well-known by tourists. Annecy hosts two annual film festivals: The film animation festival or "Le festival du film d'animation" in June and The Annecy Italien Film Festival or "Festival du film italien d'Annecy" in October
It is my most favourite town in France with its diversity of landscapes, unique architecture and particular ambience.
