What are the best things to see and do in Toulouse in one day?

Here is a list of places you could visit: 1. The Capitole: The heart of Toulouse, this is probably the biggest attraction in town. The city hall is known for its robust impressive architecture.

La Cité de l'Espace: Toulouse is a major aerospace center in Europe and La Cité de l'Espace is a testimony of the same. You can visit this place if you are a science, air or space fanatic. 3. Musée des Augustins: It is a beautiful 14th century monastery that was turned into a museum after the French Revolution. 4. St.Sernin Basilica: Is the largest Romanesque church in Europe. 5. Chateau Bellevue: One of the best maintained Chateau's in the area, Chateau Bellevue is known for its lush green gardens. There are trees that are hundreds of years old. Toulouse is a big city, its center is quite small, so you can walk to the most popular sites in the inner city quite easily. Toulouse also has a very efficient metro system that runs all day and most of the major sites are connected by metro stations.
