The Vieux-Lille is possibly one of the most striking areas, filled with many ornate buildings. This old-town area of Lille demonstrates the true Flemish soul of the city. Visit the Place du General-de-Gaulle or the Vieille Bourse (a stock exchange from the 1600s!) for a taste of the city's history, or simply wander through the cobblestone streets to discover many local cafes.
During your visit to Lille, you must sample the foods and drinks that the region is famous for. Northern France hosts an amazing beer scene, with many craft bars offering a truly French-Flemish experience. Plus, Lille's proximity to Belgium means you are never too far away from waffles. Belgian-style waffles have delighted the people of Lille for over 250 years, and you will be able to see why as soon as you taste one.

The city was founded in the 12th century, and visitors can see many traces of its medieval era in the existing town. However, the most well-known attraction in Bayreuth is the Margravial Opera House, a Baroque theatre and UNESCO World Heritage Site. This ornate venue is part of what inspired famous composer Richard Wagner to move to Bayreuth. His life and legacy are celebrated every summer in Bayreuth with the Richard Wagner Festival. You can also learn about Wagner at his former residence, now the Richard Wagner Museum.
Bayreuth features many more historic buildings to explore, notably the Hermitage (Old Palace) and the Neue Schloss (New Palace). The Court Garden near the New Palace is an especially scenic place to relax after a busy day of sightseeing.
