11Riquewihr (Alsace)

Another gem in the Alsace region, Riquewihr is a beautifully preserved village that looks straight out of a fairy tale. Its medieval architecture, adorned with vibrant flowers and pastel-colored facades, makes it one of the most photographed villages in France.

Set against a backdrop of rolling vineyards, Riquewihr is also known for its wine, particularly Riesling. A stroll through its narrow, cobblestone streets reveals a mixture of 16th-century houses, charming courtyards, and historical landmarks.
