Explora los sabores auténticos de Upper France en una experiencia gastronómica inolvidable.
Haute-France, the northernmost region of mainland France, is a land of contrasts forged by history, industry and surprising nature. Its flat landscapes hold the deep scars and moving memorials of the First World War. Its industrial past has been reinvented in places like the Louvre-Lens museum, and its Flemish heritage is palpable in Lille's architecture and traditions. From the majestic cliffs of the Opal Coast to the Bay of Somme, through its Gothic cathedrals and bustling carnivals, it is a region of unexpected human warmth, with a strong character and festive culture.

The weather can be very changeable and unpredictable throughout the year, especially on the coast; It is essential to bring clothing for rain and wind. For the Braderie de Lille, it is absolutely necessary to book accommodation many months, even a year, in advance. Many beaches on the Opal Coast are pebbly and the water of the English Channel is cold even in summer.
