Region: Dordogne
Dordogne
is a département in central France named after the Dordogne
River. It is part of the région of Aquitaine and is surrounded
by the départements of Haute-Vienne, Corrèze, Lot, Lot-et-Garonne,
Gironde, Charente-Maritime, and Charente. The former province
of the PERIGORD is now known as the Dordogne. Between Paris
and Pyrenees, midway between Pole and Equator, the region
is crossed by the Transeuropean road ans the 45th parallel.
Its location gives it a particulary mild climate, pleasant
in all seasons. It is a land of rich variety, set between
ocean, continental and mountain areas. The gentle hues of
such diversity are symbolised by the four colours of the Perigord,
four regions in one. Dordogne is located in the Aquitaine
Region
