I offer you a little tour of the top 3 districts of Brest.

Brest city center

It is difficult to make a topo of the most interesting places to visit without mentioning the Brest city center. Indeed, it is a very young and dynamic district which resembles the Brest imagined by Vauban in the 17th century.
