When you enter the department by the D 656, you only see it. A wide and high bastide which presents its clear front perched on a pech. You climb up to it by a small road which, below the ramparts, winds up the hillside. You pass through the gate and discover the orderly streets, the Place des Cornières, the belfry and its moon clock, then the stairs that leave the town, the water tower, the former house of the Bishops of Agen, the municipal garden. There, an orientation table guides you through the green landscape of the Boudouyssou valley. On the other side, the gaze soars from the Verdus forest towards the Quercy Blanc where the cool shade of the trees alternates with dry and burning limestone plateaus.
