Voilà, je suis là, j’écoute, je laisse le temps, dans sa fuite me courir après, je sais que de moi - à la fin - il ne restera qu’un signe discret, lointain. Ca suffira.

A walk in #besançon with #lecorbusier #touch is like walking through centuries of history, and the old quarters offer visitors their architectural treasures, but it is also an escape into the surrounding forests or along the river Doubs, which surrounds the old city with a natural rampart, doubled by the walls built by Vauban. As you walk along, you can admire the facades of the beautiful private mansions (nearly 200, mainly built in the 18th century), stroll through Battant, an old winegrowing district built on the slopes that used to be extended by vineyards, and discover the Saint Jean district, nestled on the slopes of the citadel, around the eponymous cathedral. This building dates back to the early Middle Ages and contains many treasures, including masterpieces of Italian Renaissance painting and the famous astronomical clock, which is exceptionally complex. In addition to the bridge, you can go and play at the casino, in the heart of the old thermal district, where Colette, among others, passed through. #vesontio #art #heritage #creativity (à Musée des Beaux-Arts et d'Archéologie de Besançon) https://www.instagram.com/p/CQquVI4A0M2/?utm_medium=tumblr

For more than 2000 years, the exceptional site of #besançon has been occupied by man: the Gallic people of the Sequans, then the Romans, following Julius Caesar who admired the defensive qualities of the site "whose river forms a loop that looks like it was drawn with a compass". Indeed, Besançon's geographical location is remarkable and has always been fortified. #vesontio #citadel #juliuscaesar #vauban (à La Citadelle de Besançon) https://www.instagram.com/p/CQqs_bMgSXW/?utm_medium=tumblr
