Description
The largely underrated Tarn département, which extends east of Toulouse, has no shortage of attractions, including Albi, which is blessed with one of the most striking cathedrals in France, and graceful Cordes-sur-Ciel. Further along the Tarn valley, Moissac and Montauban are well worth a detour for their architectural heritage.
