Its foodie scene is quietly stealing a march on its bigger and better-known rivals. All that luscious produce from the surrounding Burgundy countryside\u2014not to mention some of France\u2019s best wines\u2014ends up in Dijon\u2019s restaurants, caf\u00e9s, food shops and food market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dijon\u2019s cultural attractions and architecture are just as appealing. Wander around Dijon\u2019s historic center and you\u2019ll come across dozens of <em>h\u00f4tels particuliers<\/em>\u2014elegant townhouses built from the 15<sup>th<\/sup> to 18<sup>th<\/sup> centuries for the nobility. They\u2019re the warm-up act for the Palais des Ducs et des Etats de Bourgogne, the former palace of the dukes of Burgundy. This sprawling edifice is dazzling enough even without the equally impressive Place de la Lib\u00e9ration opposite.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Stroll towards the 13<sup>th<\/sup>-century Notre-Dame church and marvel at its fantastically grotesque gargoyles leering down from above. Look down at the brass owls embedded into the sidewalks that invite you to follow the Owl Trail all around the city center. Rue de la Chouette (Owl Street) features a cute owl sculpture. Do as the Dijonnais do and rub it\u2014always with the left hand\u2014for luck. Walk along Rue de la Chouette to surround yourself with pretty medieval half-timbered houses. There are a lot of things to see and do in Dijon for a city break.<\/p>\n\n\n<div id=\"search-widget-overlay\" class=\"search-widget-overlay\">\r\n  <div class=\"search-widget-overlay__form\" data-search-widget-container>\r\n    <div class=\"search-widget-overlay__details\">\r\n      <button class=\"search-widget-overlay__close\" data-search-widget-close>\r\n        \u2715\r\n      <\/button>\r\n      <div class=\"search-widget-overlay__text\">\r\n        Dijon      <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n\r\n  <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"search-widget-cta\">\r\n  <button class=\"search-widget-cta__button\" data-search-widget-cta>\r\n    Tickets to Dijon  <\/button>\r\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Eat<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Get your culinary bearings by starting in Les Halles, the 19<sup>th<\/sup>-century food market in the center of the city.
