Strolling Around Lille (Strolling Around Europe)

By Irene Reid

Enjoy exploring Lille, the capital of Northern France. Lille was part of Flanders before becoming French under Louis XIV, so it has both Flemish and French influences. Walk through the old town, visit its unusual cathedral, and spend time in the amazingly extensive art museum. This is a self-guided walk, which will take you step-by-step into the most interesting parts of Lille, and includes maps of each walk section to make navigation as easy as possible. Excerpt from the book: "Find Morel & Fils, a shop which started life as a lingerie shop. As the market for lingerie dropped, the family converted it into a bookshop and finally into a café about thirty years ago. Like other buildings near it, it has a cannonball embedded in the external wall, but this one was decorated by Monsieur Morel with a wine cork and painted pink to make it look like a breast. It's on the second floor, above the "s" of "Fils".
