The old medieval city of Carcassonne is really a must-do and must-see. It's a busy place, even…read moreduring Covid-19 times. Luckily there are several big parking lots very close to the old city. This one here is really just besides the main gates/entrance. Of course the fees are on the higher side, but you pay for the location. And since there's no entrance fee to the city, it's a fair enough deal. We parked on the southern side of the street, on the unpaved part of the lot. Some trees at some parking spaces provide a little shade. Useful, since it gets pretty hot here when it's sunny. A safe parking lot, location very convenient. Would park here again.
