Rouen, the capital of Upper Normandy, is located on the Seine river. It is a very, very old city with some 100,000 inhabitants.

The city is well kept, specially in the center. Outside the city center it's industrial. Most of the buildings are made out of wood ! This is the city known for Jean d'Arc.
