The capital of the Alsace wine region, Colmar looks for all the world as though it has been plucked from the pages of a medieval folk tale. At times the Route des Vins d’Alsace fools you into thinking it’s 1454, and here, in the alley-woven heart of the old town, the illusion is complete. Half-timbered houses in chalk-box colours crowd dark, cobblestoned lanes and bridge-laced canals, which have most day-trippers wandering around in a permanent daze of neck-craning, photo-snapping, gasp-eliciting wonder.
