Aside from being known for the being the seat of the European Parliament and to host some other European institutions such as the European Court of Human Rights; Strasbourg is also a very nice city to visit. The whole city center is on an island (the \u201cGrande \u00cele\u201d) and the houses are of a typical medieval construction style with white timber-framed buildings, particularly in the Petite-France district alongside the river.
