Travel Tips from people who've been to Champagne-Ardenne
The main attraction in Reims is the beautiful flamboyant Gothic cathedral, where numerous French kings were crowned. The cathedral also features stained glass windows by Marc Chagall. But it's also a wonderful little town for wandering in, and the extra bonus is that you are in Champagne. You can get a taste of the very finest Champagnes, either in a glass, or worked into all manner of dishes, like a Champagne-vinaigrette-dressed salad, or chicken braised in Champagne. Good tip?

Good tip? (0) Little village on top of a hill with great views over the vineyards, this place is perfect for an afternoon stroll. Several houses have these typical, old, little signs to indicate what the they do in that house; pressing vines, making barrels,... There are several wineries here, but when we were there they were all closed. So if you go outside the season you should book in advance. Well worth a little visit is the abbaye Saint-Pierre. In the adjoining church you can visit the grave of Dom Perignon. This monk changed the proces of champagne-making forever. Good tip? (0)
