Arras trip planner

Arras is just small enough for you to enjoy over a leisurely walk along the two great squares providing a splendid collection of 155 unique façades of Flemish baroque architecture, with stop at the many bars and cafés along the way for refreshments. This capital of the Pas-de-Calais department on the Scarpe River in northern France will immerse you in their culinary culture with many local specialties. The Saturday market on Petit Place has an outstanding farmer's market that makes an ideal morning stroll. Stop by to buy fresh cassoulet made with beans and meat, or paella, a saffron-flavored dish made from rice and shellfish.
