Today's photo feature - November 5 2001

Walk in the town where wine is king

Beziers is a town, that has secrets at every corner. The magnificent Cathedral is well worth a wonder, - climb its tower if you can - the views are superb. Walk along the Canal du Midi and marvel at the mix of architectural beauty and engineering. Visit Le Jardin du Plateau des Poètes as you walk into town from the railway station. Take in one of the chateaux of the area's wine barons - including Chateau de Belle-Ile which houses the largest private auditorium in France. The Mediterranean beaches are a short drive away and include such resorts as Portiragnes, Cap d'Agde, Agde, Marseillan Plage.
