This morning in Gex, we started with a bright mood after many days of gloomy weather. Today must be our lucky day.

Our destination today is the beautiful and charming city of Annecy, pronounced "ahn-see". After taking care of everything, let's hit the road!

What's in here?

Ms. Pa has begun her mission.

The elder sister has taken up her position.

Fuel is also prepared for long journeys.

This mall has become a legend in our country.

The road to Annecy was filled with lush green fields, and we were quite happy with the journey.

After two days of drizzle, seeing the sunshine and clear skies lifted our spirits.

During this trip, we used GPS with caution because the city is located near Switzerland.

Lake Geneva serves as a natural border between the two countries. If we let the GPS choose the fastest route,

it would take us through Switzerland, which would definitely cause problems.

This is because we did not have the necessary sticker on our car to cross the border into Switzerland.

If we entered, we would surely be fined. Therefore, the route we took was quite a detour,

passing through small villages until we reached our destination.

You have entered the Annecy region.

Annecy is a popular honeymoon destination for young French people, surrounded by the Alps.

It is the capital of Haute Savoie and is known as the "Venice of the Alps" due to its canals and bridges.

Located in the French Alps, Annecy borders Switzerland and Italy.

All tourists and travelers passing through this area must pass through Annecy.

Especially during the tourist season, which starts in spring and lasts until autumn (around the end of March to October), this small town in the valley is crowded with tourists, both European and from other continents.

Upon arrival, it was no surprise to me why this place is so popular with tourists, especially young people.

The city's atmosphere is so cute, sweet, and soft that it's hard to describe. Just standing and gazing at the serene Lake Annecy is a joy in itself.

We walked to the large and spacious lakeside park, where many tourists were basking in the warm sunshine by the water.

Some were strolling along the waterfront, enjoying the view, while others were jogging for exercise. For those who wanted to soak up the atmosphere even more,

there were boats available for rent to venture out onto the water. Along the way, there were beautiful flower gardens that added to the refreshing ambiance.

The Palais de l'Isle: A Historic Landmark in Annecy

Upon arriving in Annecy, a must-see attraction is the Palais de l'Isle, a historic building situated in the heart of the city. This unique structure, resembling an ancient fortress, stands proudly amidst the flowing waters of the Le Thiou canal.

From the Pont de la Halle bridge, visitors can admire the Palais de l'Isle in its entirety. Originally constructed in the 12th century by the Del Lisle family, the building has served various purposes throughout history. It transitioned from a residence to a courthouse and prison, then to a mint, and later to a government office in the 15th century. During the French Revolution, it reverted to a prison before undergoing a major restoration in 1986. Today, the Palais de l'Isle houses exhibitions showcasing the history of Annecy and the Savoie region.

The Palais de l'Isle's rich history and distinctive architecture have made it an iconic symbol of Annecy. A visit to this remarkable landmark is a must for any traveler seeking to experience the city's cultural heritage.

After capturing the scenery of this area, we continued to explore the city. The city plan is well-designed. The streets are shaded by the lush canopy of large trees. The old town area preserves medieval buildings in pristine condition. The houses are clean and tidy, decorated with a few flowers, just like a doll town. This is why tourists are impressed and flock here endlessly.

We strolled around until almost noon, it was time to find a restaurant to fill our stomachs.

It is normal for us to sometimes find opportunities to try local restaurants as a travel experience.

Let's follow along to see which restaurant we will be having lunch at in Annecy, the romantic city.

We are looking for a place to eat.

For today's lunch, the tour leader took the tour group to taste the local French cuisine.

The Parisian style at Le Bastringue, a restaurant recommended by the popular travel website.

Tripadvisor voted it as a restaurant with a pleasant atmosphere, delicious food, good service, and impressive.

And what you can't miss

It is also a recommended menu that if you come to France and don't eat it even once, it will be considered that you have not arrived. That is

Garlic butter baked snails (Escagot) As for other menus, they are mixed and matched to complete 5 food groups for better health of our tour group.

Normally, I'm not a person who likes to eat strange menus, but for the sake of learning and experience, "snails" once

What will it be like? Even the snail mucus face cream that girls like is said to be very good.

At our level, eating the whole thing should be even better (is that right?).

The restaurant had a lively atmosphere, and the service was excellent, as expected. The staff was attentive, taking orders, clearing used plates, and ensuring that each table had a constant supply of bread. The food arrived quickly, and the taste was universally delicious. However, there was one issue: our friend, who dislikes vegetables, was forced to eat them by the tour leader. This was because the tour prioritized health alongside sightseeing. To fully enjoy the trip, we needed to be in good physical condition, which meant maintaining a healthy diet. With our tour guides, we walked several kilometers each day, often reaching nearly ten thousand steps. The food we ate was fuel for our activities.

After a satisfying meal, we will take a short walk to digest our food.

At Les Jardins d'Europe park, near Lake Annecy, which is close to where we walked this morning but on the other side.

As a farewell to this sweet and romantic city, staying too long might not be a good idea as everything seems to irritate single people.

Moreover, in the afternoon, we have a travel plan to our accommodation for tonight, which seems like

We might have to drive through an adventurous winding road with ups and downs again. Therefore, we cannot delay our departure too much.

Otherwise, we will arrive at our destination too late and cause stress for our driver, P'Or.

Now that we're in such a romantic city, let's go all out and hurt ourselves by walking to the Pont d'Amour, the Lovers' Bridge.

Along the path in the garden, flowers are planted in flowerbeds at intervals, adding sweetness to the hearts of couples who come here to add more sweetness.

The more I walk, the more I wonder why single girls like me or those who have left their partners to sleep on their pillows would come here to walk and feel heartbroken. It's really strange.

Standing on the bridge, you can enjoy stunning views in both directions.

Looking out, you see the vibrant green lake with mountains as a backdrop.

White boats dot the shore, available for tourists to rent and explore the lake.

Turning around, you see a tunnel of trees with boats lined up, adding to the picturesque scene.

Hunlek can only stand and sigh, having traveled to break her own heart.

This bridge is believed to bring eternal love to couples who kiss on it. Alas...

Standing here for too long wouldn't do any good. Let's continue walking along the lakeside path.

The beauty of this lake is a source of great pride for the city's residents. There's even a saying that

the water in their lake is so clean you can drink it straight from the tap. And I have to say, that's not an exaggeration.

It's crystal clear, even clearer than the sky. The photos I took don't even capture half of the beauty I saw with my own eyes.

As I said, just standing here and looking out is enough to make me happy. It's a kind of happiness that's hard to describe.

The photos you see are not as beautiful as the memories and images that are still vivid in my mind today.

Notes:

• I am ready to translate sentences or phrases from Thai to English.
• Please provide the text you want me to translate.

The romantic moment in our hearts has come to an end. Our lives are destined to embark on a path of adventure without a partner.

Therefore, let us continue to walk forward without fear. There are still "him" for "us" to fall in love with again and again.

So, let's not wait any longer. Big brother gave the order to start the car.

Departing from Annecy, let's set the GPS to Chamonix.

Why Chamonix? The answer awaits…
