Colmar Dreamscape🌸

#falladventures Colmar is one of the most charming towns in Alsace, filled with colorful half-timbered houses, canals, flowers and a peaceful small-town atmosphere 🌸🏘️🌿 Start in the Old Town, where narrow streets like Rue des Marchands and Rue des Têtes show the classic Alsatian architecture. The Maison Pfister is one of the most iconic buildings, with wooden balconies and medieval details. Little Venice is the most photogenic area, with canals, pastel houses and bridges that look straight out of a fairytale. A short boat ride on the Lauch River gives beautiful views from the water 🚤🌼 Visit the Covered Market for local cheese, pastries, wines and small bites. It’s a great place for a light lunch or to try Alsatian specialties like tarte flambée or kougelhopf 🥨🍷 The Unterlinden Museum, housed in a former monastery, is a calm place to explore medieval art and the famous Isenheim Altarpiece. Wander to the Tanners’ District, full of restored 17th-century houses and small workshops. The area feels like a step back in time and is great for photos and slow walks. Colmar is also famous for its wine culture. Many small wine bars offer tastings of local Alsace whites like Riesling, Gewürztraminer and Pinot Blanc. In the evening, stroll along the softly lit canals and quiet streets. Colmar becomes peaceful at night, with reflections on the water and cozy restaurants perfect for a relaxed dinner 🌙✨
