The Grand Place of Lille is a great place to meet up with friends to then walk Vieux Lille, sit at a cafe for a wine or beer, and people watching.

Beffroi de Douai

The visit of the belfry (14-15th) will allow you to discover its rooms and espacially the 62th bells of its carillon which is a real musical instrument. Enjoy a panoramic, unforgettable view of the old Douai from the platform.

Grand Place

Reviewed By Chirp2lou - Victoria, Canada

We ended up in Arras because we wanted to visit Vimy Ridge. Luckily we had time to wander the streets of Arras to view the (mostly rebuilt) old town and the stunning square. Photos don't do it justice. A very impressive square made charming by the bakeries, shops and restaurants lining it. Enjoy some refreshments and watch the world go by...

Le Beffroi d'Arras

Reviewed By michelebt67 - Ontario, Canada

Stunning view of the city. For those who are afraid of heights it was an easy climb. A great deal if you combine the ticket with the Boves tour.

Villa Cavrois

An architectural manifesto, Villa Cavrois, the work of architect Robert Mallet-Stevens, a figure of the modernist school, was designed and built in Croix between 1929 and 1932 for Paul Cavrois, a textile industrialist from the Nord department, and his family. Listed as a historical monument in 1990 thanks to citizen mobilisation, and acquired by the State in 2001, the huge restoration project implemented in 2003 by the DRAC Nord-Pas-de Calais and then taken over by the Centre des Monuments Nationaux in 2008 will be completed in 2015.

What an amazing building and a must for art deco and architecture fans. There's a good film showing down in the basement as well showing the meticulous restoration process. Getting there was very easy too, a short hop on the tram and a ten minute walk. Easy to combine with a trip to La Piscine Museum in Roubaix as well.

Le Beffroi de Saint-Eloi

Reviewed By PaulieG74 - Ghent, Belgium

The Cathedral still bares wounds of war, with it's bullet hole ridden front wall. Inside, a typical cathedral experience you can expect with any European Cathedral.
