- Dijon is a city in eastern France, capital of the Côte-d'Or département in the Bourgogne-Franche-Comté region.
The earliest archaeological finds within the city limits of Dijon date to the Neolithic period. Dijon later became a Roman settlement named Divio, located on the road from Lyon to Paris. The province was home to the Dukes of Burgundy from the early 11th until the late 15th centuries and Dijon was a place of tremendous wealth and power, one of the great European centres of art, learning and science. Population (2008): 151,576 within the city limits; 250,516 (2007) for the greater Dijon area.
The city has retained varied architectural styles from many of the main periods of the past millennium, including Capetian, Gothic and Renaissance. Many still-inhabited town houses in the city's central district date from the 18th century and earlier. Dijon architecture is distinguished by, among other things, toits bourguignons (Burgundian polychrome roofs) made of tiles glazed in terracotta, green, yellow and black and arranged in geometric patterns.
Dijon holds an International and Gastronomic Fair every year in autumn. With over 500 exhibitors and 200,000 visitors every year, it is one of the ten most important fairs in France. Dijon is also home, every three years, to the international flower show Florissimo. Dijon is famous for Dijon mustard which originated in 1856, when Jean Naigeon of Dijon substituted verjuice, the acidic "green" juice of not-quite-ripe grapes, for vinegar in the traditional mustard recipe.
The historical centre of the city has been registered since July 4, 2015 as a UNESCO World Heritage site.

Great Video.. I will be in France soon 🇫🇷
Dijon is not the most beautiful city in France but it's really quiet and charming. Furthermore, you chose the best period to visit it. At 60 km from Dijon, there's another beautiful region which is called Morvan
I’ll have to check Morvan out next time….thanks for the tip.
@@MichaelJirochVisualArtist If you go there, I advise you to visit Vézelay, it's a listed village because it's a typical place of Morvan region. And it's perfect if you like hiking
@@pierregrangier2731 is Chateau Chinon worth the trip?
@@MichaelJirochVisualArtist it's far away from Vézelay but yes, this village is charming too. Actually, everything is cool in Burgundy, even for the tourists who aren't big fans of history. If you love typical french food, good wine, hiking, peaceful places...you'll enjoy your trip whatever it takes. I just advise you to learn a bit of french, not only because it's a beautiful language but because it's necessary too. Many French people don't speak english...
@@pierregrangier2731 we just had big Bastille Day Party at our house..aka 14th de Juliet. French food, fFrench Music, and of course...French wine and champagne. So, yes, we love French culture at our house. We also had two Frenchman over also. The French bakers from the local French Bakery in Santa Fe NM. Go to my name on Facebook and see 3 sets of photos from the Party. Coming to France in Dec...that is if you don’t close it down because of Covid again.
Thank you for coming in Dijon. It's a beautiful city and we like tourists !
I loved Dijon. But sadly the first thing that comes to mind is the psychotic abusive Son of the Airbnb I was staying at. Really, the creepiest person I ran into my entire trip In France. Yelling and screaming at me.

Yeah, diversity has another strength which is tribal warfare between diverse groups.
