Rouen France

A visit to Rouen France, including the superb cathedral. The main square is also famous for being the spot where Joan of Arc was burned at the stake. A historic site just west of Paris. Shot on HD in 2006.

@tunneltug The one I liked best was the 'Bistro d'Adrian', but if you look at my other videos, you may see that I am biaised, but there were several along the side of the Vieux Marche.

The only place I have found a 'rubbish' restaurant was in Dunkirk.

I did have a laugh in one cafe in Rouen, I asked for coffee in my best schoolboy French, the barman shrugged & looked puzzled. Le Patron, in perfect 'Oxford' English told him what I wanted. I thoroughly recommend visiting the town.

@harryfaber You could be right, I was only there for 1 week, perhaps if I'd had more time I could have found the good ones

@tunneltug I thought the restaurants were excellent!

@lapaquidelospuertos: It's fragments from the 3rd movement of the 4th Brandenburg Concerto by Johann Sebastian Bach.

Thanks for the video, it captures the feel of Rouen nicely, I've just got back from a weeks visit, nice town, friendly people, interesting history, rubbish restaurants

Thank God...someone who knows what a tripod is for. Certainly makes for a watchable video. However some commentary, and continuing music would be nice. It seems like the sound just dropped out about a quarter way through.

Thank you for this video, now I've got one more reason to go to Rouen!

Could you please reupload this video in HD if you still have the copy?

@loveyouromania Ou du moins ce qui reste après les bombardements alliés ! La cathédrale a failli disparaître en 44. Merci les ricains !

Una de mis 10 ciudades favoritas y la 7 de Francia después de Bordeaux, París, Lyon, Toulouse, Lille y Grenoble.... Francia es mi país favorito en todo el mundo y ésta catedral de Rouen, es mi favorita.
