CALAIS - WISSANT- GUINES la VIA FRANCIGENA the Road to ROME

CALAIS - WISSANT- GUINES la VIA FRANCIGENA the Road to ROME from Canterbury to Roma
La Via Francigena, la voie Francigène en français, (pouvant se traduire par la « voie qui vient de France ») est un chemin de pèlerinage reliant Canterbury à Rome en passant par la France et la Suisse. Il serait trop restrictif de l’identifier au seul itinéraire de Sigéric, Archevêque de Cantorbéry, qui effectua le trajet en 990 et en laissa la description dans un document qui récapitule ses 79 étapes, lors du voyage de retour depuis la « ville éternelle » jusqu’au siège de son évêché. Toutefois, ce sont les étapes de son voyage qui forment la Via Francigena d’aujourd’hui.

À l’instar du chemin de Compostelle, c’est une importante voie de pèlerinage médiévale qui a été récemment l’objet d’études, d’un balisage et d’une reconnaissance en 1994 par le Conseil de l’Europe comme « grand itinéraire culturel de l’Europe».

Places to see in ( Arras - France )

Places to see in ( Arras - France )

Arras is a city in northern France. The Carrière Wellington is a network of quarry tunnels used by soldiers during WWI. North of the city, surrounded by lush countryside, the Canadian National Vimy Memorial honors the Canadian soldiers killed during the war. In town, the cobbled Place des Héros has buildings with Flemish facades, including the Town Hall and belfry. The Abbey of St. Vaast houses a fine arts museum.

The capital of the historic Artois region has a strong Flemish accent, clear in the names, architecture, food and art. The gabled houses on Place des Héros and Grand-Place could easily be in Belgium or the Netherlands, while the fine arts museum has a bounty of Flemish and Dutch baroque painting.

The First World War raged in this region and there are constant reminders of the conflict a century later: Metres below your feet in Arras is an old labyrinth of chalk tunnels where the citizens took shelter, but also where Allied forces coordinated the Battle of Arras in 1917. An then just outside the city are memorials, cemeteries and thought-provoking museums.

An unexpected gem of a city, Arras (the final 's' is pronounced), the former capital of Artois, is worth seeing mainly for its exceptional ensemble of Flemish-style arcaded buildings – the main squares are especially lovely at night – and two subterranean WWI sites. The city makes a good base for visits to the Battle of the Somme memorials.

The city of Arras is famous for its two gems that are the Grand Place (main square) and the Héros square. Surrounded by 155 houses of Flemish Baroque style, these two paved squares are magnificent and make an enchanting scene! Very lively, the Héros square, lined with covered galleries home to fine food shops and cafés, is dominated by the belfry of the town hall. The former Saint-Vaast Benedictine abbey house a Fine Art museum dedicated to painting and sculpture.

All of the belfries in the historic County of Flanders are listed as UNESCO sites, and that goes for the proud one on Place des Héros. A lift will get you most of the way to a panoramic viewpoint, and after that you have to scale another 40 steps on a metallic spiral stairway for a bird’s eye view 75 metres above the centre of Arras. The belfry is in the flamboyant gothic style and has been rebuilt twice since it was completed in 1554, first to correct structural faults in 1840 and then after damage in the First World War.

Alot to see in Arras such as :

Beffroi d’Arras
Place des Héros
Grand-Place
Carrière Wellington
Musée des Beaux-Arts
Les Boves
Place du Théatre
Hôtel de Guînes
Church of Saint-Nazaire
Citadelle d’Arras

The Cuban government has implemented various policies to mitigate the impact of economic challenges on its citizens. For example, the country operates a dual currency system. The CUC is primarily used in the tourist sector, while the CUP is used by locals for basic goods and services. However, this system has led to inequality in the distribution of wealth, with those working in the tourist sector receiving higher wages than those in other sectors.

Deadliest Journeys - Papua New Guinea

Papua New Guinea is one of the world's last lawless lands lying 150 kilometres north of Australia. The town of Lae is the economic capital of the country here it more commonly goes by the name Pothole city.

It's a sorry sight with its battered roads it's packed mini buses and it's extreme levels of poverty. In the streets uncertainty reigns and the police are ineffective trying to keep law and order the locals call upon private security companies.

Papua New Guinea has one of the highest crime rates on the planet. Papua New Guinea is an island half as big as France but with a road network that practically does not exist. There are just 3 main roads that are barely tarmac and yet road transport is vital for the country.

Northern France as it once was : Village Saint Joseph

The Village Saint Joseph is located near Guînes in the Pas de Calais. It shows an enormous collection, mainly from the first half of the twentieth century, of artisan workshops such as that of the wheelright, blacksmith, mechanic and others as well as shops from the area of northern France. The founder, alongside two colleagues spent a great deal of time in reconstructing a working windmill. As a museum of the way things were, it has to be seen.

I visited whilst staying in Guînes. I went by bicycle from the campsite at La Bien Assise to Village Saint Joseph although there are ample facilities for parking too. It is situated only around 15km or so from the Channel Tunnel, yet very few British people know of it! Worth a visit next time you are passing through!

Castel La Bien Assise

À 10 minutes du port de Calais et du tunnel sous la Manche, la Côte d’Opale et le Grand Site National des 2 Caps offrent un réel plaisir des yeux. Le camping La Bien-Assise se situe dans le parc d’un manoir vieux de 2 siècles ; ses installations et son restaurant traditionnel vous attendent pour vous offrir une pause sur la route des vacances et vous donneront l’envie de prolonger votre séjour ou de vite y revenir.

Ten minutes from the Port of Calais and the Channel Tunnel, the Opal Coast and the Grand Site National des 2 Caps are a true feast for the eyes. La Bien-Assise campsite is located on the grounds of a 2-centuries-old manor; its facilities and its traditional restaurant await you to offer a nice break from your travelling and make you want to extend your stay or come back again soon.

ARRAS

Arras is the capital (chef-lieu/préfecture) of the Pas-de-Calais department, which is half of Nord-Pas-de-Calais, France’s fourth most populous region. It is located in Northern France on the Scarpe river. The Arras plain lies on a large chalk plateau bordered on the north by the Marqueffles fault, on the southwest by the Artois and Ternois hills, and on the south by the slopes of Beaufort-Blavincourt. On the east it is connected to the Scarpe valley.

Each year Arras attracts thousands of visitors, who explore the city's architecture and historic buildings. Some famous attractions include the splendid Town Hall and its Belfry (listed as an UNESCO World Heritage Site since 15 July 2005), the Boves (a maze 10 meters beneath the city), the Squares (La Place des Héros and La Grand'Place), the Art District (the Theatre of Arras and the Hôtel de Guînes), the Abbey District (The Saint-Vaast Abbey and the Cathedral of Arras), the Vauban Citadel, and the Nemetacum site (the ancient town founded by the Romans 2000 years ago).[5]

Unlike many French words, the final s in the name Arras should be pronounced
