Lyon (Noémie B.)

In Lyon, there are so many things to do and to see. Indead there are many neighbourhood which have their own story. For example "Fourvière" and "the old Lyon". In "Fourvière" we can see the basilica which is very beautiful and quiet. In "the old Lyon" we can find the "Traboules" which are a speciality from Lyon and do not exist in an other city. A "Traboule" is the way between 2 streets under houses and buildings.
Lyon is an attractive city for tourists but for its habitants too. The "place Bellecour" and "la Part- Dieu" are very popular. A lot of people come every days for shopping or other things..."Place Bellecour" is the main street of the city and some street far there is the opera which is great to see. And "la Part Dieu" is a famous mall where there are various things to do.
"La Croix Rousse" is an old neighbourhood too. It is a hill in the town.
The park of "la Tête d'or" is perfect when the weather is sunny and warm. There are a lot of animals, and walkers can do bike and diverse other things...
There are a lot of public transport in this town so it is easy to go where we want.
There are some museum as the museum "Gallo-romain" or the museum "Gadagne". They both talk about the story of Lyon. The first deals with Lyon in the antiquity and the second deals with Lyon in an other time.

I am going to talk about Paris,(France) the most tousitic city in the world. You can visit this city during a week without seeing the same monument. Of course, in the things to see, there is the Eiffel Tower, known all over the world. It had been built in 1889 and the hight of the roof is just over 300 m. There are three levels you can reach with a lift or stairs. On these levels, you can have a marvellous panorama of the city, which extends very far. When the weather is sunny, you can see even more far. But the weather is often smoggy in Paris so if the sky is blue, take your chance and climb the Eiffel Tower ! You wouldn't be disappointed ! There is also the arch of triumph which is the world's largest roudabout nowadays. The arch was made for the victorious soldiers to parade through coming back after the war under Napoleon. The huge arch is located at the end of the Champs-Elysées, the world’s most famous avenue almost 2 km long. When you go to Paris in December, the avenue is illuminated at night and it is wonderful, but it uses a lot of electricity ...There is so much to see here at any time of the day or night ! Of course, for the lovers, you can go to the Montmartre hill, which is very romantic. If Paris is far from you, watch "Le fabuleux destin d'Amélie Poulain" and you will see how Montmartre is nice. There are plenty of restaurants, shops ... Go to the Sacre Coeur at night, the basilica is even more beautiful. If you want to see The Joconde for real, and not just in picture, you have to go to The Louvre, the biggest museum in France. This museum is really huge and you will be exhausted at the end of a few hours. If you prefer the shopping, there is all that you want in Paris at the price you want. Don't we say that Paris is the fashion capital ?

Review : Meknes By Wazna.B

Meknes is a city of Marocco and is situated between to Fes and Rabat. This city is very beautiful and very wonderful at the night. The "Médina of Meknes" is a old neighbourhood with some small markets. They sell spices, clothes, shoes and there are some restaurants but they are very small and they sell a few of Moroccan specialities. They find much artisans who preserve their art.
In this city, they find some shantytowns because people have not the means to live in a cottage or a big house. There are mosque too.
During a travel, I can talked and saw the mayor of Meknes, Ahmed Hilal. In the city, there are much young people because the population is in majority young. We talk much the "Bèrbère" , it is a old language of the North Africa.

Lyon is the second biggest city inFrance. Long before it used to be the capital. You can see the sights of Lyon. There are ancient monuments such as the Roman Theatre in Fourvière. There, we can find the famous basilica too.

Here is the basilica of Fourvière during December 8th at the time of the celebration of lights. That day, the city looks enchanted and so magical.

The architecture of Lyon is quite ancient in the "Vieux Lyon" but it is also modern in La Part-Dieu for example. La part-Dieu is well-know for its shopping center and for its railway too. But, in my opinion, it is more pleasant to go to the mall of the "carré de soie" situated in Vaulx-en-Velin or in Cordelier because you can walk outside and you are not locked in.
Besides, in Lyon, I really like the zoo called "Parc de la Tête d'Or". When the sky is sunny you can see exotic animals.
My favourite squares in Lyon are Bellecour (the biggest in Europe) and "Les Terreaux where there are the town hall, the fountain of Bartholdi and the museum "Beaux Arts".
In addition, Lyon can offer you lots of means of transport and it is very pratical.
Finally the stadium Gerland receives the best footballers in the world. I really want to say that Lyon have a gorgeous football team: the Olympique Lyonnais which was the Champion of France 7 times in a row. Well done !
To conclude, I advise you to go to Lyon, you will not be disappointed !!

I like Hammamet in Tunisia because it is a tourist city. when I visited it, I saw a lot of hotels and restaurants, I never forgot the sunny beaches and the sea. I love this city for its culture. music is very differently, the way they dress is very original and the food is really delicious. one can find typical dishes of couscous and margua.

The activities are beach volleyball and parachuting. I want to go to Hammamet next summer with my family.I am looking forward to it.
