Colmar is the best preserver major town in Alsace. It was spared most of the ravages of war and modernisation. Today, thanks to a very active tourist industry and (dare we say it?) the influence of Disneyland, it has been restored -- or at least its center -- to a fairytale view of the past.

We lived in France in the 1970s and made a visit there. But we had forgotten plenty, mainly how big the tourist center is.
