About Amiens
Amiens is a city in northern France, divided by the Somme river. It's known for the Gothic Amiens Cathedral and nearby medieval belfry. Shops and cafes line the Quartier St. -Leu's narrow streets. Floating market gardens (“hortillonnages”) dot the city's canals. The Musée de Picardie shows art and antiquities spanning centuries. Nearby, the Maison de Jules Verne is a museum where the science fiction author once lived.
