The new Figaro History: journey to French Indochina. The magazine, on newsstands this Friday, devotes a large file to what the French ‘pearl of the empire’ was.
From the discovery of the temples of Angkor to the defeat of Diên Bien Phu seventy years ago. Le Figaro Histoire retraces the genesis of the Cold War and the way in which it pitted Russians and Westerners against each other. On the reporting side, the magazine takes you to the splendid Greek archaeological site of Messene.
