Dijon wears its long and glorious history with grace, and with a self-confidence that’s never smug or off-putting because it’s so obviously deserved. The city’s 25, 000 students get much of the credit for keeping the nightlife scene snappy, though people of all ages participate in the city’s thriving cultural life.
