Toulouse
Located on the banks of Garonne River, the city of Toulouse is the centre of aviation and spaceflight since the last 20 years. Once a very rich city due to the monopoly in sale of blue colouring (pastel) extracted from woad plants, the condition was interrupted only when Portuguese also started to import indigo. This is the second largest student centre in France.
Giving the city the nickname of La ville rose or the pink city, there are many of the red brick buildings that are of a pseudo-Roman style. Since it is not a very big city, it can be well covered by foot. There is the Capitole de Toulouse, housing the Hôtel de Ville, the Théâtre du Capitole (opera house), and the Donjon du Capitole, located on the Place du Capitole. Jardin des Plantes, Pont Neuf, Hôpital de la Grave, featuring a copper dome, Château d'eau, Wilson Square, etc are also places to be visited.
Many religious places are also present in Toulouse like Saint-Sernin Basilica, Notre-Dame du Taur church, Church of the Jacobins and its cloister, Saint-Étienne cathedral
Daurade basilica, Ursulines tower etc. Musée Georges Labit, Musée des Augustins, Museum d'Histoire Naturelle are some museums located in the city.
