A small town once owned by the king of England

A small town once owned by the king of England.

As an important Atlantic Ocean port, La Rochelle used to export salt and wine to England and other places in Europe and North American.

Today, it is a very touristic place.

Nordic Area

Opposite to "Course des Dames" and on the other bank of "vieux Port", there is a Nordic district where many businessmen from Nordic countries were living there during the old time.

Buildings in this district are renovated to reflect the Nordic construction style - colorful facades.

    Oh! Oh! I would like to return.... how nice your pictures are ! Too bad for this La Marine in LR, La Marée was great, though. I agree, I had a nice experience at La Marine in IdeR. Waiting for more :-)
