Choiseul
Village is perhaps the most untouched part of the Choiseul District. While the
surrounding communities of la Fargue, Reunion and Le Riche have moved on by
leaps and bounds, the capital has stood relatively still in terms of modernization.
Yet, it is naturally beautiful and to a great extent mirrors our treasured history
and culture! We can consider Choiseul Village a natural heritage site, a living
monument of the district. Here are some photos which tell the story!

AND the petroglyph! It can be the #1 tourist attraction in Choiseul village. Many visitors tell us they drive through Choiseul village especially to see it and they can not find it.
