Figueres

As the capital of Alt Emporda, it is a busy commercial town, an important communication centre as well as Dali´s birthplace. There is an spectacular museum dedicated to him which is the meeting place of many visitors who come to the town.

Other interesting attractions in Figueres include the Catalonia Toy Museum, which displays all kinds of miniature toys made by the world's most prestigious toymakers, the Empordà Museum, whose collection ranges from archaeological finds from Empúries and Ullastret to 20th-century paintings by Vayreda, Tàpies or Cuixart, and the Museum of Naïf Art in El Far d'Empordà.

      J' ai découvert un restaurant sur Figuères, une Creperie Bretonne, l'endroit est génial pour sa décoration et en plus on y mange bien!
      Creperie Bretonne calle cap de creus 17600 Figueres(derriere le musée dali) 0034 972 504 765, alors aprés la visite du musée Dali, une petite crepe!!!

    3. figueres - jérôme houmard (28 Jun 2007 - 13:05)

      ville intéressante à visiter,surtout le vieux quartier proche du musée Dali.
      seul soucis, il n'est pas facile de trouver une place de parking et la circulation en ville est assez compliquée.
