The Ste Cécile Cathedral,
in the old city center, is very large and an amazing
architecture with many frescos in rich colours.
Nearby you can visit the Toulouse-Lautrec art exhibition
in the Palais de la Berbie.
A few steps away you can go for a walk on the banks
of the river Tarn or for a short cruise on small boats
"gabarres" from Albi. Just strolling in
the old
city center is a pleasure where
you will see many porches
and half-timbered houses...
