Dinan
A walled Breton town in the Côtes-d'Armor department of northwestern France, Dinan sits on a hill above the Rance river, its medieval ramparts and château forming a heritage-dense streetscape that draws steady visitor attention. The old town is well supplied with cafés and restaurants for its size, and the river below offers a change of scene from the hilltop streets. Several UNESCO World Heritage sites lie within the wider region.
