 Meeting the ambassadors of Picardy.
They are historical guides, hotel owners, gardeners, artists and all especially proud to be Picards; they speak passionately about their native Picardy:
“Picardy must be discovered step by step, from one encounter to the next.”
Jean-Pierre Semblat - Picard storyteller
“This is my favourite region. Whether it's Gerberoy or the “Hortillonnages” (marshland market gardens), there are thousands of landscapes to paint in Picardy.”
René Heveraert - Artist in Gerberoy
“The cathedral of Amiens represents the highpoint of French Gothic architecture. It is an unsurpassed marvel of medieval construction, and very Picard! I'm so proud when visitors fall under the spell of this magnificent heritage.”
Christian Sutcliffe - Historical Guide in Amiens
“This region engenders a great feeling of wellbeing. Some visitors fell in love with the pace whilst visiting our garden. Even in the rain, Picardy's charm casts its spell.”.
Nathalie Vinçon - Owner of the Jardin d'Orgeval
“My main goal is to enrich the visitors' experience in a playful way, by encouraging them to dream.”
Yves Bienaimé -Living Museum of the Horse in Chantilly
“The hand of Man has fashioned everything here: the canals, the banks, the vegetable gardens and the flower gardens.”
Nisso Pelossof - The Hortillonnages at Amiens
