Hotels Yonne France Cheap Yonne Hotels GuideWith no truly large towns or cities, Yonne is perhaps the most peaceful department of an already tranquil Burgundy. It also breaks with local tradition a little by opting for cider, rather than wine as its primary drink of choice. There are, however, still many renowned vineyards here, such as the ones producing Chablis around the sleepy capital of Auxerre. This is also a good place from which to explore Yonne (both the area and the river that gave it its name) via boat. Sailing through Auxerre alone you'll be met simultaneously by two flamboyant Gothic cathedrals on either bank, as well as rows of elaborately timbered cottages. It's not the only historic town on a river here, however. Vezelay, a little further south, can boast the largest and most famous Romanesque church in France - the 12th-century Basilique Sainte-Madeleine. As well as its stunning design, it once contained what was thought to be the tomb of St Mary Magdalene (and still houses some relics of hers), and has subsequently become one of the most oft-visited places in Europe. The small town of Avallon is another historic treat. Once a practical fortress, its city walls and several of its flanking towers still remain today and are open for exploration. It's also become known (as has many a town in this region) for its gastronomy, and both biscuits and gingerbread are manufactured and sold here.
