Things might change a bit, but this is generally the plan.
I'm so unbelievably stoked for this, only a month left!  |
Its weird youre doing gritty, hip 20th Century Marseilles then going all the way back up north for Brussels. Maybe Lyon, France's second city (best food too, and a UNESCO Urban Heritage Site for the historic centre+ loads of new progressive development), or Strasbourg, possibly the most European looking centre in Europe, like in the fairy stories (its actually a border city swapping between French and Germanic styles as it once straddled both countries, with its population still working in Germany and living in France, and vice versa etc.), a mix of architecture in styles and ages, and threaded through with canals:
Also I strongly, strongly recommend Munich (perhaps over 20th Century Cologne) - its historic yet very very progressive, with a stunning Old Town, palaces galore, and amazing new architecture too, gorgeous parkland, and alot of bier. It recently usurped Copenhagen to take top spot for the world's most liveable city - and is very much a pulse of city planning zeitgeist at the mo'.
