Carcassonne – The Medieval Fairytale Castle City

Step into a real-life fairytale as I explore Carcassonne, one of the most magical and well-preserved medieval cities in the world. 🏰🇫🇷

Located in the South of France, Carcassonne is famous for its massive double-walled fortress, cobblestone streets, and ancient towers that make you feel like you’re walking through history.

In this video, I walk through the Cité de Carcassonne, visit panoramic viewpoints, explore the charming streets, and share my favorite hidden corners of this iconic French fortress town.

📍 Highlights:
– La Cité de Carcassonne
– Château Comtal
– City walls & towers
– Sunset views
– Local shops & atmosphere

Whether you’re a history lover, a travel addict, or just looking for unique places in France, **Carcassonne** is truly unforgettable.

So, they made like they made a castle surrounding a city. How many like stories do you think has have happened in that castle? Well, like when I Googled the history started like centuries like 600 different people shooting from an arrow from there. Yeah. What? Are you okay? You know, this isn’t like the most luxurious hotel in the world. It’s a four-star hotel. From outside it looks like more than that, but the views it has to the castle are just insane. Like imagine imagine you’re in your hotel and you get up, you have a little coffee, and then you see this bridge and a castle. It’s like a fairy tale. Do you think like frogs live there? I I don’t hear any frogs. Would you eat a frog? Yeah. Yeah. Have you eaten a frog? No. No. We should eat frogs. Yeah. You know, I I ate frogs. I know. Should we eat frogs together? I’d rather eat something else. Look at that. Whoa. What do you think? I want to go there. You want to go there? I think there’s like a dragon or something. So then we found out that isal and this is so they look the same. Same same but different. That one it’s five stars. That’s not five stars. How how do you think like inside will be? Do you think it will be like as cool as outside? I mean it’ll be like smaller house. You think I will throw you from the wall? Okay, I finally got finally got up. So, we’re going this stairs for like 20 minutes till this under this flaming hot sun. You know, this does look like a ferry. To enter the castle or the city, you have to go through one of this that back in the day, like when war was going on, they would close this bridge so the enemy entered the city. Wow, look at that. Wa. I feel like we’re back. Like we just went back a thousand years or more. Yes. First shop. Maybe throwing up the vibe a bit, but I don’t know. Yeah. Should we get this? Uh, it looks like a dog. Hey, don’t say that. That’s a castle. But isn’t this a castle? It’s free for like under €25. €19. Should we go now? This is the castle. Oh. Oh. Oh my Oh my god. What is What the heck? Okay, now I really feel like we’re back in the day. This is like a Disney movie. Like a castle. A very old castle. Look at this. Should we open this? Let’s go. Okay. Yeah, most of the people have left. That’s good. Oh, that’s a castle. Huh? Wow. Hola la. Imagine it’s like 2,000 years ago and you’re like looking at this and then there’s like soldiers coming and want to kill you and your family and your city and everybody, you know. And this looks like medieval movie. Wow. What is that? Very cool notebook. This one is very cool, but it’s like Well, to be fair, like a million people have opened it, so I think it would be funny. But I really want this. Oh my god. So cool. That was enough castle for today. Right now, we go to the important part. What is important part? The casserole. What’s that? the thing you want. It’s called casserole. Yeah. Okay. Is it like a soup? What’s different? A soup is a soup. Which one? What do you want? You want that one? What would you do with that? Drink. Drink tea there. Are you sure? I want this one. It looks very cool, but I like this one more than that one. Like the thing like Oh my god. It’s like a deeper combination. That’s so cool. Hey, wait. They have the match. How much is this worth? like 40. So, they have a menu that’s like the onion soup, uh, one of these fancy weird soups, and a dessert for 17 years. Okay, so we’re going to eat the onion soup and the other soup. But what happened? Everything here opens at like 6 or like they open from 12 to 100 p.m. and then they close from 1:00 p.m. until 6:00 p.m. It’s an amber bracelet. In the story it was €5. It’s 45. No more carcass at all. How do you feel? I think it’s very nice, but now it’s getting a bit crowded. Well, people with the castle behind us, thanks a lot for watching this video and see you next week with a new adventure. Bye. You think that was the best part of the trip? That was the best part.
