Although I was born in Chile, I consider Strasbourg to be my home town as I grew up there, and met my husband there as well, so it’s always with great pleasure that we stroll the streets of this gem of a town with our children. On top of having the most beautiful cathedral in the world and a perfectly preserved medieval town within the town, it is now a haven of peace as most of it’s town centre is pedestrian, and any street opened to car traffic is considered a shared space with pedestrians and bikes, so 20 km/h zone….so wish our deciders in Marseille could visit Strasbourg and see the light…
One can spend hours contemplating the frontage of this jewel of Gothic architecture…
By the cathedral, the frontage of the « Maison Kammerzel » build 1427, now a hotel-restaurant
Open door week-end at the Opera du Rhin, as part of the « tous a l’Opera » week-end in France: guided tour and demonstrations of lighting schemes within the opera, display of costumes and make-up sessions outside, and open reherseals of the « Chasseurs de perles » opera due to open soon.
