Picardy is in northern France, lying
south of the Nord-Pas de Calais region. Cathedrals are the main
appeal of this region, with the Cathedral Notre-Dame in its capital
Amiens, a pinnacle of the Gothic style. More splendid examples
can be seen at Beauvais, Noyon, Senlis and in the hilltop town
of Laon. The chateaux at Chantilly and Compiegne are both spectacular
visitor attractions. |
