Amiens

Any suggestions for Amiens? We’ll visit the Christmas market and the cathedral, of course.

I have visited Amines long ago for the cathedral, the rest is what I know it’s there.

Adjacent district Saint-Leu and Quai Belu with it’s restaurants and bars is charming and think, but not sure the Christmas market is there too.

Jules Verne lived for 34 years in Amiens, his home is nowadays a museum. Never visited, but know it’s there. There is also nearby a permanent circus, worth checking out if there is an interesting show to see. Likely it will be French only.

Many use Amiens as a base for visiting the WW1 battle fields along the Somme river and around nearby Albert.
