Overview:
Dax, France, a city whose wide open
sky welcomes its visitors after their long journey through the
forest of the Landes. But this image is no substitute for the
real sensations one experiences when meandering down the lanes
of Dax at one's own rhythm.The roads of Dax, for reasons now
known only to them, all unfailingly lead to the "Fontaine
Chaude" constructed by the Romans.
The Saturday
markets are much more than a brisk commercial activity, the
markets are the meeting place for all Chalosse, this region to
the South of the Vast Landes departement, which has been shaken
from its habitual morning disposition. To the rhythm of the
Gascon dialect, we discover the great variety of colourful farm
produce on display here. The covered Market of Gras, more
particular, is a wonderful gastronomic event that can and often
does, shed a ray of sunshine into what can be a rather sad and
morose World.
