Béthune

Pas-de-Calais · France

A walkable town in northern France's Pas-de-Calais with a café-filled centre and a strong photographic profile, Béthune sits between the hills of Artois and the Lys plain. Half-destroyed in the First World War and rebuilt, the town carries a layered history that includes a medieval textile trade and a stint as regional capital of culture in 2011. The wider region is ringed by UNESCO World Heritage sites.
