Things to Do - A découvrir
Puy du Fou
Just a 15-20 minute drive away, this is consistently voted the best theme park in the world. Unlike Disney, there are no "rides"—instead, you get massive, world-class historical reenactments involving Vikings, gladiators, and knights.
Mortagne-sur-Sèvre
A picturesque town built on a rocky outcrop. The Steam Train: Take the Chemin de Fer de la Vendée, a vintage steam train that runs through the scenic valleys. The Gardens: Stroll through the Jardins de la Cure for a panoramic view of the Sèvre Nantaise river.
Shopping at Talipapa
The central market, also called Talipapa, offers a variety of beachwear fashion shops, specialty shops. Another open-air market to the north & more upscale, is called D‘Mall . This place hosts a small supermarket, beachwear shops, antique furniture, lamps, jewelry & native woodcarvings. Both places are perfect for pasalubong or souvenir shopping.
