When most people think France, they immediately think Paris, and often times it is unfortunately the only city they visit.  Here are 9 of the most beautiful small towns in France, that are NOT Paris.

I have nothing against Paris, as it is still definitely a must see, but I have found that the true beauty and culture of a country can sometimes be found even stronger outside of the big cities (France especially). Next time you are looking to take a French vacation, I recommend renting a car and canvasing the countryside.
