This part of the France travel guide covers three 'regions' of France: Lorraine, Picardy and Calais. These regions all fall on the northern coast and north-eastern borders of France and are often passed on the way to sunnier, more glamorous parts of France.

But take a moment to slow down! The regions contain some interesting sights and towns.

The highlights include:

The coastal resorts of northern France, such as Le Touquet and Boulogne, which strive to be entertaining all year round, and succeed in attracting visitors from both Paris and from the UK and other countries in the region.

The battlefields and cemeteries of the First World War that dot the region continue to attract a large number of visitors fascinated by the terrible events of the trench warfare that ravaged much of this part of France.

Amiens cathedral

You will come across many of the UNESCO listed belfries of France in Picardy and northern France

The markets in the larger towns in the region are very well known in the run up to Christmas, both among French and overseas visitors - see our guest article about Christmas shopping in northern France: Christmas shopping in French markets. One of the largest of these French christmas markets is held in Lille.
