Amazing, surprising, lively, the Hauts-de-France region has all the attributes to make you talk. It has all the makings of something to talk about. Just outside Paris, in the north of France, an elegant historical enclave of horses, castles, and luxury claims some of the most impressive tourist experiences. Hauts-de-France has encompassed two distinct regions since 2015: Picardy and Nord-pas-de-Calais. Both regions are among the lesser-known but with a unique charm. Their proximity to Belgium, their agricultural tradition, and their "Nordic" climate makes them one of the greenest areas, thanks to their constant rainfall. In this region, the whole family will have a great time and create many memories. Nature is very varied: from the forests, jungles, and plains of Amiens to the beaches and limestone cliffs of the coast. The hiking trails of the regional nature parks of Avesnois, the headlands and marshes of Opal, Scarpe-Escaut, and Oise-Pays de France, the immense fine sandy beaches, the picturesque fishing villages, and the elegant seaside resorts of the Opal Coast and the Picardy Coast will delight vacationers in search of relaxation, disconnection, and tranquility. The capital is Lille, an active cultural and artistic city. In addition to its beauty, the city stands out for its central location, very close to Belgium, on the route between France and England. It is 58 minutes by high-speed train from Paris. Among its highlights to visit are the Grand Place, the Lille Opera House (exact replica of the Parisian one), the nightlife of the old town, and its authentic markets: on Sundays in the Wazemme neighborhood, or the first week of September in Braderie, a mega flea market. If someone thinks of the region of French castles, the place that comes to mind is probably the Loire Valley. However, some of the most beautiful castles in the country are located in this area. This is the case of Chantilly, located in the department of Oise, near to Paris, so it can be easily reached from Amiens, a city located in the heart of the Loire Valley. Here you can also find different gastronomic proposals, nightclubs, an extensive sports and cultural offer, and magnificent views.
