Poitou-Charentes lies in sunny mid-western France and comprises four administrative departments, each with its own lively and attractive regional capital city:
Deux Sevres (capital Niort)
Vienne (capital Poitiers)
Charentes (capital Angouleme)
Charentes-Maritime (capital La Rochelle)
Each of the four departments possesses its own regional identity, largely as a result of its geographical location. The westernmost region includes both flat, grain-producing plains and coastal marshland - much of it a protected nature reserve.
Inland to the north lie the celebrated network of tranquil waterways and lush meadow known as the Marais Poitevin, whilst further south the Cognac area is characterised by its wealth of productive vineyards supplying grapes for both the illustrious brandy and its aperitif close relative, Pineau de Charentes.
Elsewhere, in northern Charente and Vienne, for example, you will pass through gently undulating fields of sunflowers, maize, rape and wheat.
Throughout the region, the landscape also features coppiced woodlands of chestnut, oak, cherry, holly and acacia, lending colour throughout the seasons. Here and there, lone mature walnut trees stand like sentinels. The effect, whatever the season, is both beautiful and rich in its variety. |
