Of cultural interest
Other towns and villages near to Saillagouse offer their own special
charm :
Llivia with a strong Spanish influence and a pharmacy which
dates from 1415, Llo with its Romanesque church and tower which
command an outstanding view also boast natural hot spring (not
an unpleasant way to soothe the muscles).
At Hix, we found the
residence of the "Count of Cerdagne" and the open-air
market at Puigcerda bustles with colour.
Down towards the plain, there is Villefranche de |
|
Conflent with its 17th century ramparts and
nearby grottos of natural and wonder formations. During the month
of June, Prades hosts its annual festival of music in honour of
Pablo Casals, the museum with his name as an interesting visit as
is Prades' most baroque of all cathedrals.
With the "petit train jaune" (little yellow train) you
can gently travel across The Cerdagne and take in it impressive and
quite unique landscape. This train is also practical as it takes
you all the way to Villefranche with a stop at the Saillagouse railway
station. |
