Family
adventure combines with the ultimate shopping experience in Calais�
Calais
is shopping heaven for day-trippers. But after you've 'shopped till you
dropped', remember Calais is not just wall-to-wall hypermarkets, bars and restaurants. Start
by taking a stroll through the old city to and see the Citadel's
ancient walls and the Watch Tower - part of Calais' war-torn history. Then,
why not check out the Church Tower of Notre Dame now being restored to
its former glory? | But
if you really want to see history in action, be sure to visit the Mus�e des
Beaux-Arts et de la Dentelle and 'Little England' where hundreds of
years ago thousands of Nottingham folks settled and worked producing lace. |
WW
II comes to life at the Nazi's V2 rocket base at La Coupole just a
few minutes drive from Calais. Experience Hitler's massive Dome of Destruction
and see for yourself inside the German Navy's headquarters, home of the Calais
War Museum. Then, get ready for an incredible journey! The Transparent
Man, at le Cit� Europe, is a remarkable, state-of-the-art multimedia
tour of the human body. It's educational and, more importantly, fun for
the whole family. Calais is your gateway to Paris. For more information
