Interview: My Cergy-Pontoise
With Guillaume Eustache, author of the guide
Guillaume, who writes guidebooks for the Petit Futé, knows the Cergy-Pontoise area well: "To explore the smallest corners of the area, to rediscover it in a way, is to rediscover the feeling of evolving in a unique sector, where the city rubs shoulders with the countryside, where the architecture is unique, and where the culture and history are rich." A favorite place: the Major Axis, of course!
