Brides-les-Bains
Brides-les-Bains (French pronunciation: [bʁid le bɛ̃]) is a commune in the Savoie department in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region in south-eastern France. It was an Olympic Village for the 1992 Winter Olympics, based in Albertville, France. There is easy accessibility via Eurostar direct from London and there is a cable-car link direct to the ski slopes at Méribel, a major resort eight miles (13 km) away. Brides-les-Bains' main attraction to tourists is its convenience for Méribel. The village has a few attractions, including several health spas and a casino, and sites of historic or cultural interest, including the springs from which the town takes its name, a medieval church and a statue made out of piping titled "La Manche de Chapeau" (French: "The Sleeve of a Hat").
