Vichy
【City description】
It is the principal city in the region of the central in France. Because this is a volcanic area and they use volcanic stones for the construction, we find many back buildings in the city. As the cathedral on the hill is the center of the city, there are many up-down roads. The company Michelin which is famous for the gourmet guide book started the business in this city. We can find the history at the museum located in the urban area.
