LU-P2

A surprise postcard from Amarilis through this blog...

Several views around Luxembourg City and the its coat of arms. Upper right is the building at Lower Town of Grund (Ville Basse du Grund). Marché-aux-poissons (Fish Market) with the National History Museum by the Alzettein River on the upper left. Mother and Child Sculpture (Mère et Enfant) by Englisg sculptor, Henry Moore at the lower right. FInally, the lower left shows the Luxembourg City Hall (L'Hôtel de Ville). Among these structures, Marché-aux-poissons is within the old quarter of the city, which is listed in UNESCO Heritage List under the name "City of Luxembourg: its Old Quarters and Fortifications". Thanks.
