Regions of France S.

The region of Languedoc and Roussillon is a region experiencing a great transformation. With the Autoroute A75 and the TGV trains from Paris and Lille (where they connect with Eurostar) this area's traditional isolation is ending, as the delights of the country and centres such as Montpellier, Perpignan, Carcassone and Nimes are opening up. The area is known as the "other" south of France, starting at the Spanish border and following the curve of the coast east to the Camargue. The practical information in this edition has been up-dated, as have the hotel and restaurant recommendations. There are details of museums, galleries, sports and leisure facilities, and the region's ancient towns and villages, along with its distinctive gastronomy. Area and local maps and plans are included.
