More of Cheryl's Bourges photos

When our friend Cheryl spent a day in Bourges in September 2003, she also went to the cathedral
and took some pictures. The cathedral is incontournable, as we say; you can't avoid it.

    


    

In Bourges, Cheryl also went to see the Palais Jacques-Cœur, which the Cadogan Loire guidebook describes as "a palatial town house... full of delights." It was built starting in the year 1443 by a man named Jacques Cœur, who was the argentier ("money man" or minister of finance) of French king Charles VII. I'll post some of the photos she took there tomorrow. I haven't been there... yet.

  1. It is good to see Cheryl’s photos and interesting to see another person’s rendering of basically the same subject matter and compare.
