The charming city of Strasbourg, capital city of the Alsace-Champagne-Ardenne-Lorraine region of northeastern France sits on the Rhine near the German border. The culture and architecture of the city blends German and French with a medieval quarter filled with amazing UNESCO-rated buildings.
After arriving this morning, enjoy a panoramic city tour that will take you past the Parc de l’Orangerie, the town’s oldest park, the European Parliament, and the Place de la Republique.
Catch the miracle of medieval technology at the 12:30pm daily performance of the 15th Century Strasbourg Cathedral’s astronomical clock. Enjoy the 468 foot spire in rose-colored sandstone while waiting for the timepiece to strike.
Or stroll along the waterways and enjoy the half-timbered houses of the Petite France District, “La Petit France”. The beautiful houses of the district date back to the 16th and 17th centuries.
