, Haute-Savoie<br />

Yvoire, in Haute-Savoie, Auvergne-Rhône-<br />

Alpes region, was founded in 1306 when<br />

Amédée V, Count of Savoy began fortifying<br />

the former fishing village. It’s officially one<br />

of the most beautiful villages in France (Plus<br />

Beaux Villages de France). Sitting of the<br />

shores of the grand Lake Geneva, known<br />

as Lac Leman in French, it’s nicknamed the<br />

“pearl of Lake Geneva.” The colourful<br />

streets are beautifully floral with geraniums<br />

and wisteria have won it numerous and<br />

prestigious distinctions and the Garden of<br />

the Five Senses featuring 1500 varieties<br />

of plants makes for a sensory walk<br />

accompanied by bird song and the sound of<br />

a tinkling stream.<br />
