Strasbourg, a beautiful city for all visitors.

Come visit Strasbourg, the city of the stork, a beautiful place with a great diversity. Tourists describe it as welcoming, beautiful and historic.

In this guide we have choose the better place to visit in the city for you.

 

The first place is the greatest monument of the city, who is obviously "Notre-dame de Strasbourg", a beautiful Gothic cathedral built in 1176 with over 4 million visitors a year. In this cathedral is the astronomical clock, the first ever built and listed as a Historic Monument. It's an amazing place, with a lot of history, to visit when we came in the city. During more than 2 century, the cathedral was the higher building in the world with her 142 meters and is still the 5th taller cathedral in the world.

The 2nd place to visit is the European Parlement, in the Louise-Weiss building. Built in 1993 and is the official seat of the MEP, the Member of the European Parlement. It's in the center of the European democracy with more than 800 seat in the 2nd biggest hemicycle in the world. The shape of the principal building is inspired by Roman amphitheatres. For a great visit of the building you can take a guided tour with a guide who knows the place inside out.

 

The 3rd and final tourist attraction in our ranking is Petite France, a very touristy district with traditional half-timbered houses that has been preserved as it was in its day. The terrace of the Vauban dam offers a magnificent view of the whole district. It is a UNESCO World Heritage site. The district is part of the town's heritage and further enhances its appeal to tourists. There are some very good restaurants here, where you can sample all the traditional food of Alsace.

For you, we interview an Texas tourist to find out if the city appeals to tourists. We ask few questions, do you like strasbourg and for what, what they dislike, what do you think about french people, why are they here, what about the food in strasbourg and what do they think about the weather.

The response in the order was generaly, they like the history of the city and the food, I don'y know if they was sincere but they response that they have dislike nothing. They have told to us that the French people was helpful and are great person. Most of us was here for vacation. About the food, tourists tell she is delicious and different from home. And the weather is good, not to warm and not to cold. So we can tell you, Strasbourg is a city who know how to look after their tourists.
