Cholet
"Lots of flowers"
Cholet is a fairly small town in western France, whose two main claims to fame are as a former centre of textile production and as the scene of a battle during the Vendee revolt of 1793.
However, one of the most striking things about Cholet is the quality of the floral displays. The flower beds outside the Hotel de Ville were quite spectacular. There are also attractive gardens, such as the Jardin du Mail, and lots of hanging baskets. We even saw a vending machine for bouquets.
