Yvoire
Yvoire ('most beautiful villages of France') is on the southern shores of Lake Geneva.
Tourist Information and places to visit
Yvoire is set on a peninsula on Lake Geneva, the Leman peninsula, which divided the Lake into the 'small lake' and the 'large lake'.
It is a very attractive little village, dating back some 700 years. The stone doors through the ramparts, and the chateau (only the keep remains), are existing remnants of this earlier more turbulent time.
Nowadays Yvoire is a town of medieval architecture, artisans and cafes, and above all, lovely views out across the Lake...
...but also of flowers - the town has won numerous awards for its flower displays, and attracts many visitors as a result. The lovely gardens surrounding the castle are a highlight of a visit to Yvoire.
You can also take a pleasant cruise across the lake from Yvoire.
Other most beautiful villages in Rhone Alps include Balazuc, Mirmande, Bonneval and Perouges.
