Béziers - one of the most photographed view in France .............. If he was passing by now this is the view of the Cathedral of Saint Nazaire that he would see !
“My journey from that delectable spot (Carcassonne) lasted a couple of hours and was performed in darkness - a darkness not so dense, however but that I was able to make out, as we passed it, the great figure of Béziers, whose ancient roofs and towers, clustered on a goodly hill-top, looked as fantastic as you please. I know not what appearance Béziers may present by day, but by night it has quite the grand air.”
Henry James - from “A little Tour in France”, 1884
