ARRAS 2: After wandering on the outskirts of town where the Fauborg d'Amiens cemetery and the citadel were, I headed back into the centre to visit the fine arts museum and - what a surprise - head up to the top of another tower (using an elevator this time)

Gardens in the courtyard of the musuem A mosaic in the museum; can't imagine piecing it all back together. Like a big jigsaw puzzle!

The foyer of the museum; the lion used to be on the top of the Hotel de Ville

A balcony in the museum, I want this in my house! Ha dream on...

The Grand Place with its fantastic Flemish buildings, never seen anything like them before
A closeup on the buildings (the shabby looking brown one in the middle is the youth hostel I stayed in)The Hotel de Ville, it has lots of gold on it that looks spectacular in the sunshine The view from the top of the Hotel de Ville
Gargoyles, they're everywhere

The Hotel de Ville lit up at night. I think Arras is at its best at nighttime
