Reims

Champagne Capital & 33 Kings' Coronation City: Gothic Cathedral, Chalk Crayères & Verdun

📍 Reims, France 📅 3-day itinerary

The city where 33 French kings were crowned from 816 to 1825 and where Dom Pérignon perfected the bottle fermentation that created champagne — underground chalk quarries carved by Romans in the 3rd century now store 5 million bottles of Taittinger at constant 10°C beneath one of France's finest Gothic cathedrals, 25 km from the most devastating WWI battlefield in France.
