As the valentine’s day approaches it reminds me of Brasserie Des Tanneursthe, a French restaurant in the fairytale town of Colmar, France.The restaurant is beautifully decorated in the valentine theme with hearts all over.In Colmar, during medieval times, hearts on the doors meant that a woman inside is either getting married or available.
Colmar is one of the most beautiful medieval town in the Route du Vin (wine road) in the Alsace region of France.This picture perfect charming town is surrounded by rolling vineyards and mountains.The streets are very beautiful with an abundance of colorful hanging flowerpots, half-timbered houses, little canals and beautiful French doors. The antique shops and the decorative cozy roadside cafes definitely adds to the beauty of this medieval town.
You can just stroll through the little town along the canals and enjoy the pleasant ambience of little Venice and have a romantic dinner in one of the cozy restaurants
If time permits do visit the other little towns along Route du Vin. A road trip will enable you to enjoy the little wineries along the way.
As you drive into the city don’t forget to check out the replica of Statue of Liberty.
