The smartest thing about La Rochelle is that this centre of town sits right about the harbour. The harbour is beautiful, brimming with yachts and boats as well as the entrance is guarded by two old stone towers. The Tour St Nicolas (Saint Nicolas Tower) is 42 meters high and appearance like a small castle sat around the water. The Tour de la Chaine (The Chain Tower) was built between 1382 and 1390 and contains an exhibition regarding the migration of French visitors to Canada.<br /> <br /> The harbour is full of very reasonably priced restaurants, a fantastic place for a relaxing lunch. In the evening the region transforms and fills on top of various entertainments provided by street artists, from music to gymnastics to fire eating. If you're searching for something a bit more up-market go to the nearby Rue St Jean Du Perot which is brimming with really interesting looking restaurants together with a Thai restaurant plus a highly recommended fish restaurant called André. We chose the Bistro Remi Massé which won top bistro prize in 2006 and just weren't disappointed.<br /> <br /> From the harbour area walk from the beautifully decorated clock tower and you eventually be a single from the main shopping streets of La Rochelle. Here you will find Pimkie, Camaieau, Promod and many more with the popular French shops. Around the corner from all of these you will find Les Galaries Lafayette house designer collections or possibly a walk towards the covered market reveals a large amount of exclusive boutiques.<br /> <br /> The covered market is often a must. Inside is really a wonderful variety of top quality butchers, cheese shops, deli's where there is surely an amazing selection of cooked meals in case you are planning on the good picnic. Delicious, and not cheap. Outside within the mornings you will see there's quite large fruit and veg market.<br /> <br /> Walking round La Rochelle considered one of my favourite sights could be the Maison Henri II (The House of Henri II). This is an elaborate façade of an house but has the appearance of a looking for Romeo and Juliet. In front of it you will discover there's lovely little courtyard garden. Perfect spot to avoid and eat an ice cream! Another lovely spot could be the Cloister des Dames Blanches, a cloister with a pleasant garden with an art exhibition decorating its walls. And yes, for other garden fans like myself don't miss the Jardin des Plantes that is behind the Natural History Museum. This can be a fantastic garden and contains many plants I could only imagine growing in a very greenhouse though I live further south in France than La Rochelle. The museum is worth a visit too!<br /> <br /> La Rochelle is a great town to see for a number of days. The best thing about La Rochelle is how the centre of town sits right on the harbour.
