Brest Flights
This small city on the Allier River has been known since the Roman era for its hot and cold springs, and reputed cures for rheumatism, arthritis and digestive complaints. The celebrated letter writer Madam de Sevigne and the daughters of Louis XV came here in the late 17th and 18th centuries - the former compared the showers to "a rehearsal for Purgatory". The visits of Napoleon III in the 1860's put Vichy on the map and made taking the waters fashionable. The small town was spruced up and became a favorite among the French nobility and the world's wealthy middle classes. A summer day in downtown Vichy is not much different now from a hundred years ago. In the morning, wealthy Parisians emerge from their hotels to sip from the famous springs that supposedly restores youth.
