Quimper, a beautiful Breton city (in France)

My favourite city in France is Quimper, located in Brittany, one of the country’s region. (Obviously the best region… This is where I come from). In this city there is a beautiful cathedral, called Saint-Corentin named after one of the seven founding fathers of Brittany’s diocese. In July, there is a festival dedicated to Breton’s traditions with Breton dances, music, food… There is also a parade in traditional Breton clothes, it is incredible ! Finally, there is the election of the Cornwall Queen, a woman who belongs to a Celtic group doing Breton dances. She wears traditional clothes and has to do a presentation about a particular element of Brittany’s culture. Brittany is full of Celtic culture. If you wonder where to go for your next trip, choose this place !
