Calais (/ˈkæleɪ/ CAL-ay, traditionally /ˈkælᵻs/; French pronunciation: [kaˈlɛ]; Picard: Calés; Dutch: Kales) is a town and major ferry port in northern France in the department of Pas-de-Calais, of which it is a sub-prefecture. Although Calais is by far the largest city in Pas-de-Calais, the department's prefecture is its third-largest city of Arras. The population of the metropolitan area at the 2010 census was 126,395. Calais overlooks the Strait of Dover, the narrowest point in the English Channel, which is only 34 km (21 mi) wide here, and is the closest French town to England. The White Cliffs of Dover can easily be seen on a clear day from Calais. Calais is a major port for ferries between France and England, and since 1994, the Channel Tunnel has linked nearby Coquelles to Folkestone by rail.
Due to its position, Calais since the Middle Ages has been a major port and a very important centre for transport and trading with England. It was annexed by Edward III of England in 1347 and grew into a thriving centre for wool production. Calais was a territorial possession of England until its capture by France in 1558. The town came to be called the "brightest jewel in the English crown" owing to its great importance as the gateway for the tin, lead, lace and wool trades (or "staples"). In 1805 it was a staging area for Napoleon's troops for several months during his planned invasion of the United Kingdom. The town was virtually razed to the ground during World War II, when in May 1940, it was a strategic bombing target of the invading German forces who took the town during the Siege of Calais. During World War II, the Germans built massive bunkers along the coast in preparation for launching missiles on England.

Migrants or so-called "refugees" in Calais show their true nature. They attack, harass and board trucks / trailers on their way to the U.K. I also make some comparisons to the Refugees Are Welcome Here movement.

Custodela went in October to the "Jungle" camp of Calais, France. Here is our documentary film about this incredible migrant camp that got dismantled at the end of October. "About the Jungle" shows the reality of what was called the "Jungle", an informal transit camp where up to 12,000 people lived, coming from dozens of non-European countries and mostly trying to reach the UK, illegally.

Take a tour of Calais City Hall in Calais, France -- part of the World's Greatest Attractions travel video series by GeoBeats. Calais, France is home to an outlandish and elegant city hall. This town, in the northernmost part of France, boasts an exceptionally beautiful Flemish Renaissance architectural styled city hall. The strikingly magnificent turreted clock tower slices through the sky and is visible from all over town. The slow-going construction of this city hall was initiated around the start of the 20th century. The belfry erupts with a ring that is almost as beautiful as the structure itself. The city hall of Calais will excite every sense and leave ever lasting memories.
It was a very quiet late Friday afternoon crossing in my Motorhome so I decided to keep my Dash-Cam footage and make this "drive through" to help anyone who is wondering what the process of getting on the train is. As I was in a Motorhome, the boarding was into a large single decker carriage. Cars without roofboxes or roof racks are usually placed in double decker carriages, however, the boarding process is exactly the same. As mentioned at the end of the video, Calais is similar but slightly different so watch until the end for the subtle differences.
For more aerial drone shots of Genoa, please see Stefano McCoy's channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCsgQjacVyrNWo5vSmjsdAzQ The gritty maze of the medieval city that makes up the core of Genoa is both beauty and the beast. The grandeur and heritage of this once great trading city lives side by side with modern vice and decrepitude. The odious smelling alleys give way to modern and chic restaurants and shops. Genoa is one of the most difficult of cities to describe and is very different from more generally travelled Italian cities like Rome, Florence or Venice. My Grandfathers WWII RAF flight record for those that might be interested - the campaign against Genoa looks to be one of his earlier flights: First Tour 25 June 1942 - Bremen (6.30) 29 July 1942 - Dusseldorf (3.00) 10 ...
The Channel Tunnel (French: Le tunnel sous la Manche; also nicknamed and shortened to Chunnel)[2][3] is a 50.5-kilometre (31.4 mi) rail tunnel linking Folkestone, Kent, in the United Kingdom, with Coquelles, Pas-de-Calais, near Calais in northern France, beneath the English Channel at the Strait of Dover. At its lowest point, it is 75 m (250 ft) deep.[4][5][6] At 37.9 kilometres (23.5 mi), the tunnel has the longest undersea portion of any tunnel in the world, although the Seikan Tunnel in Japan is both longer overall at 53.85 kilometres (33.46 mi) and deeper at 240 metres (790 ft) below sea level. The speed limit in the tunnel is 160 kilometres per hour (99 mph).[7] The tunnel carries high-speed Eurostar passenger trains, the Eurotunnel Shuttle for road vehicles—the largest such transpor...

I just hung up the phone
I was talking to you
We said good bye
I sat down and cry
Coz' I remembered the things
That we've done
When we were sitting together
And our love has begun
For more and more
I want to go back in time
I'll always love you
I hope you know
But on and on
I need to wait
Chorus:
7 1/2 years that was our pact
7 1/2 years there is no turning back
7 1/2 years till I get to see you again
I am looking at the pictures
Of me and you
Both of us were smiling
For this damn photo-shoot
That was the day when it all began
But all I want to now
Is to see you again
For more and more
I want to go back in time
I'll always love you
I hope you know
But on and on
I need to wait
