Touraine, the region around Tours, is known for its wines and for the perfection of its local spoken French languageFrench. It is also the site of the cycling road bicycle racingrace Paris-Tours.
History - The name of the city comes from the ancient List of peoples of GaulGallic tribe called the Turones. In Roman times it was known as ''Turonensis''. The modern name, Tours, coincidentally corresponds to the French word ''tours'', "towers". In the mid-3rd century GatianusGatianus (Saint Gatien) was sent from Rome to reorganize a small Christian community. Martin of ToursSaint Martin of Tours was bishop of Tours at the end of the 4th century, and his tomb became a major pilgrimage site; the church of Saint-Martin was one of the great Romanesque pilgrimage churches, like SaturninSaint-Sernin in Toulouse and Santiago de Compostela, and the powerful bishops of Tours, such as Gregory of Tours, were personages to be reckoned with for the Merovingian kings.The Battle of Tours was fought on October 10, 732 between forces under the FranksFrankish leader Charles Martel and an Islamic force led by Emir Abdul Rahman Al GhafiqiAbdul Rahman al-Ghafiq. The Franks defeated the Islamic army and stopped the northward advance of Islam from Spain.The Touraine was a county at the time of the CarolingiansCarolingian rulers (751 to 987 AD). The Vikings pillaged the town in 853 and 903. By 1044 it was held by the counts of Anjou. During the reign of Philip II of FrancePhilip II, the Livre Tournois (Tours Pound) was adopted as the international currency of France.In the 16th century16th and 17th century17th centuries, Tours had a significant Huguenot population, many of which had been responsible for the building of a huge silk industry. With the Edict of Nantes rescinded in 1685 and the resulting slaughter of thousands of Protestants, the Huguenots fled the country and the once flourishing silk industry of Tours, vanished forever. Some of the Huguenots settled in Ireland where their weaving skills saw them establish some of the great Irish linen factories.
Cathedral of Tours - ''Main article: Cathedral of Tours''The cathedral of Tours, dedicated to Gatianus of ToursSaint Gatien, its canonized first Bishop of Toursbishop, was begun about 1170 to replace the just-started cathedral that was burnt out in 1166, during the quarrel between Louis VII of France and Henry II of England. The lowermost stages of the west towers (''illustration, right'') belong to the 12th century, but the rest of the west end is in the profusely detailed Flamboyant Gothic of the 15th century, completed just as the Renaissance was affecting less traditional patrons than bishops, in the pleasure châteaux of Touraine. These towers were being constructed at the same time as, for example, Château de Chenonceau.When the 15th century illuminator Jean Fouquet was set the task of illumninating Josephus's ''Jewish Antiquities'', his depiction of Solomon's Temple was modeled after the nearly-complete Cathedral of Tours. The atmosphere of the Gothic cathedral close permeates Honoré de Balzac's dark short novel of jealousy and provincial intrigues, ''Le Curé de Tours'' (''The Curate of Tours'') and his medieval story ''Maitre Cornelius'' opens within the cathedral itself.
Language - The inhabitants of Tours !(Tourangeaux
City - The center of Tours has a population of 137,000. Tours is called "Au Jardin de la France" (The garden of France). There is a large park in the city center, and a cedar tree near the Cathedral. Tours is on the Loire river, which splits just to the west of the city, and so Tours has a river on both its northern and southern sides. The buildings of Tours are white with black slate roofs which is common in the north, whilest in the south the buildings have terra cotta roofs.Tours is famous for its old part of the city called ''Le Vieux Tours'' with its Tudor style houses in half-timbering and ''La Place Plumereau'', a square with only pubs and restaurants full of people who dine and drink ouside at tables filling the center of the square. Boulevard Beranger crosses rue Nationale, and is the location of weekly markets and fairs.
Transportation - Today, with its extensive rail (including TGV) and autoroute links to the rest of the country, Tours is a jumping off point for tourist visits to the Loire Valley and the chateaux of the kings.Tours is on one of the main lines of the TGV. You can travel down the Western coast to Bordeaux in two hours, or to the Mediterranean coast via Avignon and from there to Spain and Barcelona. It takes one hour by train from Tours to Paris by TGV. Tours has two main stations, a central station and ''St Pierre Des Corps,'' which is just outside the center, and is the station which trains that don't terminate in Tours go through. Tours doesn't have a metro rail system, instead there is a very efficient bus service, the main central stop being ''Jean Jaures,'' which is next to the Hotel de Ville, and ''rue Nationale'', the high street of Tours. A tram is planned to be built in the next few years.
Miscellaneous -
Births - Tours was the birthplace of:Honoré de Balzac (1799-1850), novelist Berengarius of Tours (999-1088), theologianYves Bonnefoy (born 1923), poetAbraham Bosse (1604-1676), artistGeorges Courteline (1858-1929), dramatist and novelistEmile Delahaye (1843-1905), automobile pioneerPhilippe Néricault Destouches (1680-1754), dramatistJean Fouquet (1420-1481), painterGabriel Lamé (1795-1870), mathematicianPhilippe de Trobriand (1816-1897), author, American military officerLouise de la Vallière (1644-1710), courtesan Image:Public garden in Tours, France.jpg''Jardin public central'' (central park}.

The Magic of Erix Logan
Erix Logan, is the stage name of Enrico Del Buono, born and grown in Italy where he started his interest in Magic at an early age with the help of Alberto Sitta, president of C.M.I. (Italian Magic Club). In his thirties he decided to move to Canada, though he primarily considers himself a world-citizen as he is continuosly travelling around the globe with tons of illusions and a cast of 20 people with his full evening show. He received twice the Mandrake D'Or Award for the originality of his Magic. Indeed the magical illusions he performs are influenced by his unique personal touch and sense of staging which is different from the standard perception of what a 'regular' magic show shall look like. The emotional connection with his audience oftenly turns into relationships lasting for years and years. Erix Logan si still receiving comment on the show from people that have seen it even 10 years ago! Accordingly to Erix own comment this is the most astounding kind of Magic he has ever experienced! Never tired or afraid to test new ways he is now working to launch a new style of magic through an artistic cooperation with fine artist Jim Warren. His final goal is to become the father of a new way to look at the Art of Magic for the young generations to come.
