Nantes was built along the Loire river, at the confluence of the Erdre and the Sèvre rivers. Nantes is the capital of the Pays de la Loire région of northwestern France, and is one of the most desirable places in France to live. Tourists will find an easy going community; the center of Nantes features attractive architecture occupying the space between gardens and waterways. With all the water that comes together at Nantes, there is a variety of water sports that the tourist can participate in, from sailing to kayaking to simply taking a boat cruise down the Erdre river to see it all happening. You can ride along in our virtual tour of Nantes.
And don't forget, all those people flocking here from Paris also want shopping and nightlife, and both are found abundantly in Nantes.
