Tourism Ille-Sur-Tet
This country, located on the river Tet, in the plain of Roussillon, is washed and fertilized by running water. They determined its agricultural and have her dress and they made it a favorite spot for fruit crops. When money frosts of winter have given way to the first scent of spring, Ille, seen from the left bank of the Tet, appears in the magnificent scenery that is the imposing mass and the snowy peaks of Canigou as a vision of paradise. Cherry, apricot, peach and above, multiplied like a forest of trees, flourish in an atmosphere of fresh flowers and white roses, their petals on the promise of the most delicious fruits. At their feet, opulent gardening hint at the richness of the soil and the heavy work which the earth nourishes. At the bottom of the terrace which runs along the right bank of the river, my eyes feel a new delight at the sight of the many fountains that gush out there and spreading around their waters clear and perfect freshness unmatched . The village itself is grouped on the terrace. The red tile roofs appeared above the ramparts, which for years have protected the city and overlooking its monumental form the mass of houses, the church draws its impressive architecture and its square tower in the dazzling brightness of sky.
