Introducing Limoges
The city of Limoges is renowned for its production of enamelware and fine porcelain, and if you’re looking to pick up some French crockery, then this is certainly the place to do it; but these days Limoges is better known as a buzzy university town, home to around 17, 000 students and plenty of bars, clubs and drinking holes. Nevertheless, if you’re a fine-china fan, there are several museums dedicated to the city’s most famous export, and you can even visit a working porcelain factory – just remember to leave the pet bull at home.
