Laughter is the best medicine they say. According to scientists, we laugh and average of 18 times a day. Laughter is therefore an important part of our everyday lives and even the French know how to rire. Here's a few reflections on laughter in France, the land of La Vache qui rit! La Vache, by the way, has her own maison and museum in Lons-le-Saunier and she just celebrated 100 years in 2021.
The city of Bordeaux seems to be the center of laughter in FranceOne might say Bordeaux likes to laugh more than elsewhere in France (is it because Bordeaux is also the rainiest city in France?). The city is host to the Festival Les Fous Rires de Bordeaux in March each year http://lesfousriresdebordeaux.fr/. The city also presented an exhibition called "Rire!" at their science and nature Muséum. But Bordeaux doesn't own the market there are many other spots are also holding annual festivals, for some funny reason most are in March!
