Rouen is a city located in north-western France, in the middle of Upper Normandy. The city and its suburbs have 500,000 inhabitants.
The Seine attracts millions of visitors during Armadas held every four to five years (the last one was in 2013). Old tall ships from around the world gather in the port for about ten days of festivities.
More generally, tourism is a powerful engine for the region with a rich cultural and architectural heritage. In Rouen, the urban timber-framed buildings, the gothic cathedral church, Saint-Ouen Abbey, St. Maclou’s are classified as World Heritage by UNESCO. Our city is one of the four largest cities in France for the number of historical monuments and the first for its early heritage.

The Normandy region boasts plenty of tourist attractions. Within a maximum radius of 70 kilometers, you can discover Giverny (where the painter Monet lived), several monasteries nestled along the many windings of the Seine, medieval castles, the Alabaster Coast (which borders the Seine Maritime with its renowned cliffs, but also the beaches) ...
Beauvais (less than an hour and a half by car) has an airport with low cost airlines flying to many European destinations. The airports of Orly and Charles de Gaulle in the Paris region are also within easy reach.

Indeed, Paris is not far: a 75 minute train ride is enough to reach the capital.
