Amiens
In Amiens, you'll find a magnificent cathedral, an impressive museum, and around 28,000 students.
The author Jules Verne spent several years of his life there... no less than 34 years! But don't worry, if you'd rather spend just a weekend, that's entirely possible! A train from Amiens to Paris lets you do the round trip in record time!
At 145 metres long, Amiens Cathedral is the largest cathedral in France. Given how many cathedrals France has, that's really saying something!

The best compliment you can pay a European city is to nickname it the Little Venice of the North. (This isn't a joke, there are about ten cities nicknamed after Italy's Venice, like Bruges for example.) And Amiens lives up to its own: the Little Venice of the North.
This beautiful historic city is the ideal weekend destination, as long as you don't forget to check the weather before hopping on your bus, train or carpool! So don't forget your umbrella, it will certainly come in handy.
To start exploring the city, head to the Amiens Cathedral. We hope you got a good rest on your bus to Amiens, because it's huge! A true must-see of the city, you can take photos and visit the inside as you please (which we highly recommend).
In the afternoon, we recommend the hortillonnages of Amiens. In the heart of the city are floating gardens that you can visit on foot or by boat. It's original and beautiful at the same time!
And to finish off a busy day, why not head back to the cathedral? Every evening in summer and in December there's a sound-and-light show on its façade. The show is unforgettable, so don't miss it if you get the chance to see it.
The next morning, you can stroll through the streets and discover the belfry and the Tour Perret. Unfortunately, the Musée de Picardie is currently closed for renovations until autumn 2019. But don't worry, plenty of other activities are available, such as visiting the WWI battlefields.
