ité Europe has over 140 shops, a Carrefour hypermarket, 12 movie theatres and an incomparable "Gourmet City" with about twenty restaurants.
Designed by architect Paul Andreu as a large arch of light spanned by an archway symbolising the tunnel, a truly gleaming signal within Eurotunnel's French terminal, Cité Europe provides relaxation through its well-lit areas, open to the sky, which make it a warm, welcoming and sparkling place.
A convenient venue with Carrefour hypermarket, banks, opticians, dry-cleaners and all the services you need on a daily basis.
Not to be missed for its shopping, its leisure or simply exploring, especially the many fashion boutiques, gift or furniture shops, and above all Gourmet City and its design, featuring mock typical facades, welcoming streets and squares that recreate the respective feel of the various European countries.
The complex is also home to Carrefour hypermarket, ideal for general shopping, plus for boozy bargains you can visit Tesco on the lower ground floor and Le Chais for an interesting collection of French wines.
