The Forest of Robertsau is a huge forest with a German sounding name on the border of Strasbourg near the river that separates Germany and France. Very often the site of border clashes in the past, this city is a true mix of French and German culture. Just like other forests found in Germany, this forest too is lush and green, clean and beautiful. It is a very popular place for taking walks in summer for both locals and tourists.

L’Orangerie Park is one of the biggest green places in Strasbourg. Located near the historic center of the city it lies on the bank of the river and has many little waterways travelling around it and through it. A public space maintained beautifully, the park is the pride and joy of the local authority which endeavors to make it a grand place for both visitors and locals to take pleasure in all through the year, far away from the city life.

Another must-see is the St. Thomas’ Church also known locally as l’Eglise St-Thomas.

It is among the oldest and most beautifully built churches in Strasbourg. Located in the middle of the old city centre the church is a completely functioning place of worship and is open all through the day for private prayer and several times for public prayer too.
