The picturesque houses of Strasbourg

Strasbourg is famous worldwide for the Christmas period, as the queen of the Alsace region. The teddy bear decorations on the balconies and the Christmas lights attract thousands of tourists each year. However Strasbourg is also beautiful to see outside the holiday season, with less crowds and more serenity. The most picturesque area of Strasbourg is without doubt the Petite France. It’s full of those unique houses with the triangle rooftops and the wooden colourful facades which create a traditional atmosphere and together with the canals, make the scenery magical. Do not miss to admire the Catedrale Notre Dame de Strasbourg, the large cathedral of the city. Other attractions that you must definitely visit are the outside of the Tire-Bouchon restaurant (the famous house with the teddy bears on the facade during Christmas), the Place Kléber, the Pont Saint-Martin bridge with the colourful houses and the Place Benjamin Zix.
