Travel: 48 hours in; Le Havre It's a gateway to Europe. But don't be fooled. It's a worthy destinatio n too. By Gerard Gilbert

SUNDAY MORNING TO GO
The beach! (12) It still surprises, after the heavy
industrialisation of the river Seine approaches to Le Havre, that the
city also fronts on to a wide attractive sea bay where windsurfers,
sailors and bathers gather. Otherwise, take a stroll around the
Bassin du Commerce and the extraordinary Espace Niemeyer (13),
designed by the Brazilian architect Oscar Niemeyer and completed in
1982. The centrepiece of this ambitious open space is a building in
the shape of a ship's funnel that houses the theatre and cinemas of
the Maison de la Culture.
