Colmar, France: Alsace's Most Enchanting City - Rick Steves’ Europe Travel Guide - Travel Bite

Colmar feels made for wonderstruck tourists - its essentially traffic-free city center is a fantasy of steep pitched roofs, pastel stucco, and aged timbers. Plus, it offers a few heavyweight sights - among them the Frederic Bartholdi Museum and Unterlinden Museum - in a comfortable, midsize-town package. #ricksteveseurope #colmar #alsace

    +Eusa Maciel It would be quite the walk. You can rent a bike between Colmar and the neighboring villages if you're in good shape. There is public bus service, but it is sparse. There are also companies that do minivan excursions - most leave from Strasbourg. You can take trains between Colmar and Strasbourg. A car is a great way to get around. You can hike in the Route du Vin. Check out our website and France 2016 guidebook for more info: www.ricksteves.com/europe/france/alsace

    @@shawnv123 Not sure about that statement. Paris was liberated in 1944, a full year before the end of the European part of the war, and having given women suffrage in 1944, held their first post war election in 1945. My point, France was already on it way back to full functions. Moreover, US gave millions of $$ to France for recovery. Hence, your statement is not logical.

    It's belonged to Germany until 1945 and its population was until then very German, with Alsatian German being the biggest language in the region until the 70s I think. Nowadays German is heavily being suppressed by the French government, but the buildings tell the real story

    i have a puzzle with this beautiful city featured, Colmar, France. i decided to look it up on the internet and see if it's been overrun by muslims yet. i didn't find anything that said they had been overrun yet, but then they do sit near the border of Germany, and we all know that both Germany and France are being overrun. how very sad. this was a charming and beautiful city, i'm sure.

    @@j-loosenfout67 French people really love lying. Just me who remembers the protests after Alsace was removed in favour of being merged to create Grand Est? Ask the people of Alsace during the time of your parents or grandparents and you will get a different story. You're too young to see Alsace as anything other than a culturally ruined copy of Paris just like all other cities in France, and don't worry, I've visited France PLENTY of times, from Paris to Mulhouse to Nice to Grasse and much in between. Alsace used to be unique but your tyrannical government won't have it.
