Take a tour of Historic Town of Annecy in France – part of the World’s Greatest Attractions travel video series by GeoBeats.

There are few towns that match the lakeside Annecy, in eastern France.

The waters of the lake stream through the town at various points.

These small canals give it a tranquil atmosphere, somewhat similar to Italy's Venice.

Not only is Annecy beautiful, it has many historical sites, like the Palais d'Isle.

The town also contains a castle, cathedral, basilica, and a bishop's palace.

Over 3,000 years old, Annecy has seen much and is eager to share her rich and long history.
