In France, cheese is now becoming not only a national dish but also a main direction attracting tourists. A new cheese museum has opened in Paris, while ancient warehouses in the Jura mountains and herders in Corsica are showing tourists regional life and history through cheese.
In museums and travel routes, visitors are given information about how cheese is made and how the taste is influenced by different regions. According to experts, the market for food-based travel will expand significantly in the next decade.
At the center in the Jura region, it is explained that 400 liters of milk are needed for one piece of Comté cheese.
Experts say that tourists are no longer limited to just tasting cheese. They also want to learn about its history, the work of producers, and the cultural heritage of the region. Therefore, cheese is taking an important place in France’s gastronomic tourism.
