Things to do in Dijon, Bourgogne-Franche-Comte: The Best Multi-day Tours

February 13, 2022 Marianna Hollaway

As the ancient capital of the Burgundy province, Dijon is an architecturally rich city offering far more than mustard. In its restored medieval core, you'll discover one of France's oldest museums, the MusŽe des Beaux-Arts, as well as the elegant Palace of the Dukes and the opulent 1614 mansion H™tel de Vogue. Take a quiet walk through the lime- and chestnut-lined paths of Cours du Parc, a green space dating to 1671, and don't forget to pair the region's rich history with its gastronomic delights.
