A few days in Dijon - Dijon

A four day weekend in Switzerland was a great excuse to go for a drive to Dijon. Many friends had told me that Dijon was beautiful and that I would love it. The reality was a little disappointing; maybe my expectations had been built up too much. But I did still enjoy wandering around exploring the centre of town.

Pros and Cons

Pros:Great museum and pretty town centre
Cons:More exciting places nearby
In a nutshell:Try the food, and of course the mustard.
