Le Puy-en-Velay is a charming town in south-central France, located in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region. It is renowned for its stunning volcanic landscape and its role as a starting point on the Camino de Santiago pilgrimage route. The town's skyline is dominated by several unique and dramatic volcanic structures, including the towering statue of Notre-Dame-de-France on the Corneille Rock and the medieval Saint Michel d’Aiguilhe chapel perched atop a needle-like volcanic spire. The cobbled streets of its well-preserved historic center are lined with colorful Renaissance-era buildings, and the iconic Cathedral of Notre-Dame du Puy is a UNESCO World Heritage site. Visitors can enjoy local specialties such as the Green Lentils of Le Puy and sample regional lace craftsmanship.
