🏡 A Painted Village of Light – Colmar, Alsace, France

#postandearn 📍 Colmar, Haut-Rhin Department, Grand Est Region (Alsace), Northeastern France — near the Vosges Mountains and the German border Colmar looks like it was drawn by hand — half-timbered houses in shades of rose, mustard, and blue line flower-filled canals, their reflections gently rippling with the breeze. This Alsatian town feels like a fairytale wrapped in warm light, especially in early morning or during the Christmas season, when the cobbled streets glow with old-world magic. Nicknamed “La Petite Venise”, Colmar invites you to stroll slowly, taste local wines, admire intricate woodwork, and breathe in the scent of fresh kugelhopf and pretzels from nearby bakeries. Every corner here is made to be remembered — softly, lovingly. 🧭 Tips for Visitors: • Visit in spring for flowers or December for the magical Christmas markets • Perfect for photographers, foodies, and lovers of fairy-tale towns • Try Alsatian classics like flammekueche and Choucroute with local white wine • Don’t miss the Unterlinden Museum and a boat ride through Petite Venise • Combine with visits to nearby Eguisheim, Riquewihr, or the Alsace wine route #ColmarAlsace #FairytaleFrance #PetiteVenise #AlsaceMagic #ColorfulTowns #SlowTravelFrance #WineAndWander #HiddenGemsFrance#trip #familytrip #localguides #historicallandmarks
