Périgueux
Old Quarter
Old
Périgueux is a very attractive area. Rue Limogeanne, the narrow cobbled street that winds
its way down through this historical quarter is the principal commercial street of the old quarter. The old quarter is largely pedestrianised, with some access for service vehicles.
Many cafés and restaurants make good use of the
numerous 'places' (squares) to let clients eat and drink
outdoors. Note that this Google map shows the 'roads' going around the small squares, without making it clear that an open space exists...
There are many little boutiques too, alongside all the
butchers, bakers, wine merchants, ice-cream shops, bookshops,
fish mongers, etc.
It is a lively place hosting regular saturday morning
markets of meat, vegetables, fruits and conserves sold
by the people who toiled to produce them.
