Don't miss a tour of Amiens cathedral, a UNESCO World Heritage site and stopping place on the Santiago de Compostella pilgrim way. Nearby is the 'little Venice of the north', i.e. the Saint Leu district with its craft shops, cafés, restaurants and boutiques. You can also visit the Chés Cabotans puppet theatre in Amiens, with its traditional Picardy hero, LAFLEUR. Tour the Hortillonnages (floating marsh gardens) in an electric boat or traditional boat 'à cornet', stroll around Saint Pierre park. There's also Amiens zoo and La Hotoie park, plus the Jules Verne House (the famous writer is buried in La Madeleine cemetery), Picardy Museum, Perret tower, among many others .... You can visit all these places in a Samarobriva horse-drawn carriage which awaits you on the square in front of the cathedral.
