Lille: Attractions and more...
La Piscine Musée d'Art et d'Industrie is unique because it has been built in a swimming pool and displays works of fine-art, art and sculpture. The Fine Arts museum houses statues from the eighteenth century, archaeological findings and works of renowned artists. The Museum of Modern Art is situated in a sculpture park and houses the works of Picasso among others.
La Braderie is Europe’s largest flea market and is held during the first weekend in September. Almost all of the city’s streets are covered with stalls; music and other street entertainment take over the entire city.
Stroll down the cobble-stoned Vieux Lille (old town) with its gourmet restaurants and designer boutiques, or browse through the 8-storey bookstore, Le Furet du Nord, the largest bookstore in Europe.
The beautiful coastal area of Cap Blanc-Nez with its towering cliffs and several towns in Belgium are a day’s trip from Lille.
