Half-timbered houses in every shade of pastel. Vineyards climbing the hills right up to the edge of town. A language and a cuisine that borrow from both sides of the Rhine.
Alsace doesn't look quite like anywhere else in France, and it doesn't need to try. Wander the canals of Strasbourg's Petite France, cycle the Route des Vins through villages like Riquewihr and Eguisheim, or just find a table, order a tarte flambée, and watch the afternoon go by.
It's understated in the best way: beautiful without performing for anyone.
