Lille's Flamboyant Gothic–style Palais Rihour makes an ideal starting point. The mid-1400s building is home to the tourist office: pick up a City Pass (there are 24-, 48- and 72-hour versions), which covers entry to key museums and attractions in the greater Métropole Européenne de Lille (MEL) area, as well as public transport. Place Rihour is foot...
Trains connect the centre of Lille with the northern area of Roubaix, where La Piscine Musée d'Art et d'Industrieis a must-see.

Original tile...

Check Lille3000 for details of exhibitions, concerts, festivals and more at tw...
Lille makes a perfect long-weekend escape, with rates dropping (often dramatically) on Friday and Saturday nights. Tack on extra days late in the week, when more places are open, and in particular skip Tuesdays, when most of the city's museums close.
The city's hippest hostel accommodation is Gastama, in the heart of the old town and with a pumping in-house bar, while the 2018-opened Eklo Lilleis an eco-conscious hybrid hostel/hotel with a restaurant in a nearby shipping container. For midrange accommodation in the pedestrian centre, Hotel Kanaï is a superb spot, with regional cheeses and local...

- Old Lille. Lille’s historic district is a delight, with restored bourgeois houses on cobblestone streets. You’ll pick up on the city’s Flemish influence when you see the baroque architecture dating to the 17th and 18th centuries.
- Palais des Beaux-Arts. A simply enormous museum, Palais des BeauxArts is behind only the Louvre for size. It’s in a lovely Belle Époque summer palace from the end of the 19th century, and you may need as long as half a day to get the most out of the museum and its art from the 1400s up to the 1900s.
- La Vieille Bourse. Most agree that Lille’s old stock exchange is the finest building in the city. It dates to the mid-17th century and consists of 24 Flemish renaissance houses, all around a central arcaded courtyard.
- Grand Place. Lille’s expansive main square is the place where locals and tourists converge to meet up or see the sights. On all sides are wondrous old gabled buildings.
