Dijon has a fairly compact old-towm area and some of it is pedestrianized. There are beautiful buildings, some very old, all over the place. There is actually a lot to see in this small area and you can easily keep yourself busy for three days. There are parks, museums, markets, self-guided walks and historic buildings galore.

This is a lovely page. Thank you.
A very enticing tip on Les Gourmandises de Tatine!
What a sweet little town! I'd love to explore this area. Thanks for a very good introduction...excellent tip on hotel.
Great tips on hotel and restaurants. Nothing about mustard? I am shocked :-)
Thanks to your lovely pages, I will now think "more than mustard" when I see Dijon. Grazie, Carol <(•¿•)>
The name if famous for sure for the mustard, and you showed other parts of a fine area. Good job
Hi Kathy! Definite not just mustard --- I want to take a pic by the polar bear in Dijon (with my emperor outfit of course, hehehe)! Ooh, and I like tips on making wishes --- I will rub that owl's tummy...Norman :)
This is a great page, so much information. I have never rubbed an owl's tummy, so the next time I'm in Burgundy I absolutely have to do this.
Fantastic tips and photos! I especially like your restaurant and hotel tips. Dijon looks wonderful -- I would definitely like to visit there someday. Cheers from New Jersey, Bill
Wonderfull! Isnt this strange, I'm going to Paris-Dijon-Lautebrunnen from London. Just found that you visited those two places as well. I red you pages with great interest!
