(Last Update: 10.01.2026) We won't be able to finish our tour of Paris and its surroundings; I don't want it to end, but I will continue to introduce and share what I have learned. In this article, we will get to know a very special place near Paris, the historical medieval town of Provins. Located approximately 100 kilometers southeast of Paris, Provins can be reached in about an hour and a half by the Ligne P, or P line, train departing from Gare de l'Est.
