- NamFahBluewaterworldSurin, Thailand1,393 contributionsAmazing town and such a great and amazing experience, nice day out and look around the town and chill out at the restaurant.Written November 21, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- DavidOxford, UK1,523 contributionsWith loads of cafes and bars, the Grand Place is a great place to chill and watch the world go by. On average the places are on the pricy side but they get a lots of tourist traffic, so can afford to be.
Lille has lots of interesting historical architecture and the Grand Place boasts some good examplesWritten October 13, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

You are guaranteed to find something that appeals in this gallery, well worth the entrance fee as you simply lose track of timeWritten October 11, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Very reasonably priced at 6 euros and they’ve got a nice array of animals including rhinos, monkeys, red panda, maned wolf and lots of smaller animals, amphibians and birds.
There a small gift shop and takeaway drinks cabin too.
About a 20 minute walk from the centre of old hills (sadly no metro stops nearby).
There’s also a well maintained children’s fun far next to the zoo with lots of different rides fir small children. Plus there’s a cafe with plenty of outdoor seating in the party near the entrance too.
Nice to see lots of local families out enjoying the sunshine!Written October 8, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Stalls in the interior selling old books, posters, maps and the like!Written October 7, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Michael HWorthing, UK56 contributionsNot a fan of going round city centre art galleries I found this modern art museum really interesting being on a small scale and situated in a parkWritten September 10, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- A Midlife AdventureDursley, UK1,313 contributionsYou will find Librairie Furet du Nord or the Ferrets of the North Bookstore on the Grand Place.
I love a book store and this shop has been operating since 1960! It claims to be the largest book shop in Europe but I'm not sure having visited Blackwells in Oxford?
Obviously most of the books are not written in English but there are sections, here and there, where a display of English books on a particular genre are available for sale. The only catch is the price. I spotted, for example, a copy of a recently released paperback by one of my favourite writers but it was nearly three times the price I would pay back home. I'm not sure why?
Outside of the books on sale there are some wonderful stationery items and I picked up some unique individual postcard/ notelets which I will use for Thank you messages etc in the future.Written May 4, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

There was an information leaflet aimed at younger tourists....early 20s or so it seemed...but take it and read it as its full of useful information about lots of places suitable for all.Written February 11, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Lindum20CEast Lothian, UK439 contributionsAttended the stade for RWC2023, SCO v ROM. Generally a good experience for seeing the rugby match. An apparently necessary but burdensome system of queueing to get in, but once inside all facilities worked well.Written October 3, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- ybsaeStockton-on-Tees, UK520 contributionsWell worth a visit, low cost entry. Varied exhibits providing a lot of interest. On our visit the place had numerous children's groups, who all seemed to be totally captivated, especially in the 'creepy crawly' section. I feel that the lighting could be improved, especially in the 'stuffed birds' section.Written August 5, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- CakebreadtLondon, UK417 contributionsGreat views and information about Lille from the tower. Get here early if the town is busy as only a limited number are allowed in at a time. We went on a rugby weekend so it was busy and they had to turn away people to come later for the afternoon session.Written October 9, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Ssy13 contributionsVisiting this house is a pleasant way to spend an hour or 2 in Lille. The staff are friendly & helpful.
The audio guide in English (included in the 6€ entry fee) is informative & gives an insight into the life and times of a Lille family around 1900. There is some information about the young CdG, as expected.
This is also one of the few museums etc that is open on a Monday ✔️.Written July 3, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Had a wander around part of the perimeter.Written August 7, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Karli H8 contributionsInteresting experience - to go there for shopping and get fresh local food or flowers (textil and similarities too, but not local in this case :D). Lively marketing,people everywhere, you can buy warm meal - around the square are restaurants. The atmosphere was great. I would recomend this activity every visitors :)!Written February 14, 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
