Lorraine, as we remember, is one of the saddest places in history after what it went through as a result of the World War I. People do not show much interest because of this sad past. But I wonder, people have gotten over so many things and World War I is definitely a matter of the past. Lorraine is in fact one of the most beautiful places in the whole of France, apart from the tasty food that it can cater. In case if you are planning a tour to France, here is a list of places that you shouldn’t miss at any cost:
