Review:

Lourdes sits in the foothills of the beautiful Pyrenees mountains in southwestern France. Many religious pilgrims come here each year to see a prominent Catholic site, the Sanctuary Our Lady of Lourdes. There are several other significant religious sites around the city, including the Grotto of the Apparitions, which is known for having water with healing properties. Other attractions include the Chateau fort de Lourdes and the Funiculaire du Pic du Jer, which is a cable car that whisks visitors up the mountainside to take in panoramic views of the surroundings. Opportunities to get active abound in and around Lourdes, including hiking, water sports, and camping.
