The city of Strasbourg is the capital of the region of Alsace.
On the frontier with Germany, the river Rhine and Strasbourg has changed hands many times through history.
This charming city, with a very traditional architecture, cuisine and fine wines, the wooden structure in the buldings make this city very attractive indeed.
The European parliment, the Council of Europe and the Euopean court of human-rights, have helped raise the city to the almost status of being the Euopean capital.
