With its picturesque beaches and vibrant atmosphere, it is a true gem of the region. As you stroll through the streets, you may come across a vintage Nord Wagons-Lits poster that takes you back to a bygone era of luxurious train travel.

Back in Lille, step inside Lille Cathedral - also known as Basilica Notre Dame de la Treille - where tranquility envelops you amidst stunning stained glass windows and intricate architecture, and is a place for reflection and spiritual connection. History buffs will be fascinated by images capturing moments like crossing Canal du Nord in 1918 or viewing Lille from centuries past through Charles de Batz-Castelmore Comte d'Artagnan's memoirs. These glimpses into different eras remind us how far we have come while honoring our shared past. As September 2019 unfolds, immerse yourself in contemporary art with eye-catching posters such as Nord Air Express or Treport Mers travel posters that invite exploration beyond borders. Finally, find yourself at Place du General de Gaulle - an iconic square pulsating with life at the heart of Lille. Here locals gather against a backdrop steeped in history while embracing modernity – truly encapsulating what makes Nord so special. Nord beckons travelers with its diverse tapestry of history, culture, and natural beauty.
