Lille was one of the most surprising cities for me. I went there without more expectations but when I was there I really like the city and atmosphere there. I went to Lille from Bruge by Bus. It took almost 2 hours to arrive there and when I arrived I found a hostel and rested a bit there. The first place I recognized there was a big shopping center Westfield Eurolille.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After resting a bit I walked to the center and I was so close to the train station. The station was looking like a nice building and there was a road in front of that and each side of the road have so big cartoon sculptures. They were looking so nice through the road. When I walked more on that road I went to the Lille opera building and there was looking well-designed building as well. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then just next to the opera building I saw Beffroi de la Chambre de Commerce de Lille building and which has a big clock tower with the building. I visited that building on the second day and the inside of the building was also amazing. I like that building and the view from there. They are used for a commercial centers. Then I walked to the La Vieille Bourse area. First looking at the city was so nice for me and I walked through some streets and eat dinner in a restaurant then I wanted to rest a bit in the hostel and came back for resting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the second day first I went to a bakery place and I bought something quickly for breakfast.\u00a0 The bakery place name is Boulangerie Mathieu. They had some nice sandwiches and bakeries. Then I walked through the Equestrian Statue of Louis Faidh and sit there to eat something. Then I wanted to visit the Palais des Beaux-Arts museum from the outside and they were doing some filming inside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After that, I walked to the Beffroi de Lille but there was closed that day. I saw firefighters training from the tower and took some pictures of them. Porte de Paris monument was there as well and I visited there too. Close to there, I sit a bit in the caf\u00e9 and then Parc Jean-Baptiste Lebas Park<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I visited the Porte de Gand and that area was nice with many well-designed buildings and caf\u00e9s. Ilot Comtesse was a nice area with some sculptures and I took some photos there. Then I walked to the Notre dame de la Treille Cathedral and went inside it was really cool area also the weather was so hot that day and I rested a bit there. Next to the Cathedral, there was Le Campanile Saint Nicholas building too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After that, I walked to the Parc de la Citadelle and that park was huge I walked a lot and I saw some military points as well and there was no allowance to go inside they put some online guides to show what that area look like.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After I came back to the center and visited again the areas there was a Colonne de la Deesse statue in the center. Then I walked more to the train station and I wanted to see inside the station too. There was a nice place inside as well. Then I walked to the Shopping center which is Westfield Eurolille. That shopping center was so big and I ate something there and took a bus to the Brussel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
