Annecy, Savoie, France
Another big carnival
Annecy is a popular tourist destination in Savoy that captivates visitors with its enchanting atmosphere, rich historical heritage, and culinary specialties such as “fondue savoyarde” or “tartiflette”, and the “génépi” liqueur.
This city is renowned for its famous International Animation Festival which takes place in June, known to be the world’s leading reference for animation films.
Nestled at the foot of the lake that shares its name and surrounded by mountains, this bustling town is an ideal base for those eager to explore the region while varying their activities.
In March, the Annecy Carnival draws throngs of tourists. Many of them enthusiastically take part in the disguise game. It’s more than a game: it’s a question of putting on your best attire to rival that of Venice!
