Strasbourg*s importance as a capital of the European Union tends to overshadow the charm of this ancient, mooted city. Distinctive half-timbered buildings, covered bridges and medieval watch towers make it one of the most picturesque in Europe. You can enjoy it simply strolling around or aboard a sightseeing barge that plies the encircling waterways. One of these, the river L*Ile, winds its way south past the Chateau de l*Ile. The 19th century chateau stands in ten acres of mature gardens and wooded parkland bounded by a long loop in the river. Its location and its excellent facilities give it the status of a luxury resort. The attractive indoor fitness area has a pool, sauna, hammam and solarium as well as a place to work out. And there is a fitness course if you need help with your resolve. You can choose between traditional French cuisine or vintage recipes from Alsace. A choice made more difficult by an excellent wine list.
