Beautiful village - Riquewihr is a well-known village in Alsace, much visited for its architectural heritage, a picturesque medieval city, spared the destruction of the two World Wars. The village is south of Hunawihr and Ribeauvillé, 10 km north of Kaysersberg, in the heart of the Alsatian vineyards, on the Alsatian wine route.

Beautiful village - A beautiful village, with the Dolder and the Museum of Torture to visit, many colorful streets, a soothing and exotic village reminiscent of the village of beauty and the beast, with magnificent shops (including one on the theme of Christmas) we recommend visiting the village. Be careful though because it is a very busy place.

Christmas markets - During the Christmas period the town lights up and is meticulously decorated. The town is small, one or two hours are enough for the view.

To flee - This city does not fail to make it possible to charge a minimum of 10 euros for 3 hours of parking. So we moved on, where we could spend our money differently.
