Champagne-Ardenne is found to the north-east of France, where its north-eastern frontier borders Belgium. The capital of the region is Chalons-en-Champagne. It is not hard to guess why this region is famous or what attracts the visitors - champagne is of course loved the world over. The highlights of the region include the enormous rolling forests of the Ardenne to the north and the peaceful, unspoiled villages in the southern part of the region. One particular highlight in the Champagne region is Reims, with several important monuments including the cathedral, also the Palace of Tau and Reims basilica, and an important Museum of Fine Arts.
The Champagne-Ardenne's climate is as variable as its terrain. Winters tend to be cold, crisp and clear; summers are warm and relatively dry. The average temperature in the summer is 18°c.
