Marne-la-Vallee trip planner

As a "new town" best known for its Euro Disney Park and resorts, Marne-la-Vallée is a modern family resort town. Some neighborhoods evoke the Parisian Neo-Haussmann style, others Victorian London, and others the Modern architecture of American cities. In the older parts of the city, such as Val Maubuée, architecture from the 1960s is comparable to that of many popular suburbs of the Île-de-France region.

"Laboratory" of a city of tomorrow, Marne-la-Vallée offers a modern approach to tourism mixed with eco-tourism, without compromising its historical, cultural, and natural heritage. Not only can you enjoy numerous water sports, boating, and island cruises during your visit to this Paris suburb, but you can also visit historical museums, medieval castles, and sample local cuisine.

Marne-la-Vallée means "Water Valley." Expansive green areas, beautiful parks, and rare gardens are a natural trademark of this area, but Marne-la-Vallée is also home to one of the oldest museums in France dating back to 1766 dedicated to veterinary anatomy called Musée Fragonard. You'll also be delighted by recent Green Tourism initiatives that enhance the city's sightseeing with paved biking paths and paved shoreline along the Loops of the Marnes River.
