There are many fantastic areas to explore near Trebes.In particular, the "cite" at Carcassonne is one of the top five tourist attractions in France.
It is divided into two parts, the lower "basse" town and the "cite" which is located on a steep incline south of the River Aude that bisects both the lower and upper towns.
The lower town is where the main commercial enterprises of the town are situated.There is a market every Tuesday,Thursday and Saturday in the central Place Carnot.There are fantastic shops and restaurants all within a short walking distance from the square. There is an irish themed pub called "O'Sheridans" just off the place Carnot where there is live music most Thursday nights.It's a great place to enjoy major sports on the big tv and there is a late licence until 2 am every night.This is a real cosmopolitan place to meet new friends.It is probably the busiest bar in the lower town. The beer is a bit expensive though. The upper town is a real tourist trap but a sight to behold nonetheless.There are numerous websites relevant to the cite and many of them are in english.
For a general overview of the area including tourism,commerce and property interests,including up to date news and events links, I can heartily recommend Peters' site at www.midi-life.com.
