A perfect weekend spot where the tables are already waiting.
Today's view: Place Plumereau in the heart of Vieux Tours, one of the most charming medieval squares in the Loire Valley.
Half-timbered houses with their exposed beams and slate roofs frame the cobblestone square, while cafés and brasseries spill out with wicker chairs, umbrellas and people lingering over coffee or a glass of local Touraine wine. The big plane tree in the center casts dappled shade and the whole scene has that effortless, timeless feel, history all around, yet very much alive with locals and visitors chatting, laughing, and enjoying the mild February light.
In February the square is quieter, the crowds thinner, and the cafés feel more like they belong to the town than to passing tourists. It's the kind of place that invites you to slow down: a slow brunch, people-watching, or simply sitting and letting the atmosphere wash over you.
May your weekend be full of simple pleasures, good coffee, good company, and maybe a little Loire magic.
Bon week-end à tous ! Have a good weekend, everyone!
