This 50-minute taxi crosses the heart of the Dordogne, linking two cities of art and history with very different characters. Sarlat-la-Canéda enchants with its golden-stone medieval mansions, legendary truffle and foie gras markets, and the mysterious 12th-century lantern of the dead. Périgueux boasts the UNESCO-listed Saint-Front cathedral with five Byzantine-inspired domes and the Jean Nouvel-designed Vesunna museum housing a Gallo-Roman villa in situ. Between them, the D704 crosses the UNESCO-listed Vézère valley with its extraordinary prehistoric sites, including the world-famous Lascaux caves. Lascaux IV, the International Centre for Cave Art, offers a breathtaking full-scale reproduction of the original cave paintings discovered in 1940.
