Great little town for a visit on south side Lake Geneva of France. We visit the town at August 22. It is the second day of the festival. The are group of artists dress up with Venice Carnival mask and stand still for photo. It is to promote the town festivities. The costumes are beautiful and colorful. They are several different group of dress up carnival dresses. Some like flower girl, other like crown, and some like establishments. The festival did add quite an interesting visit. The town itself already beautiful. It is like medieval town. Flower decoration on the balcony. Stone gate entry. Church bell ringing during full hour. Stone pavement for the visitors. The setting of this town is beautiful. It has chateau, seaport, gastronomic restaurants, local art stores and more. It is is good destination to visit. There are additional local vineyard nearby that you can combine with the visit. read more
