A Walk Around the Beautiful City of Grenoble, France

- Grenoble is a city in southeastern France, at the foot of the French Alps where the river Drac joins the Isère. Located in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region, Grenoble is the capital of the department of Isère and is an important European scientific centre. The city advertises itself as the "Capital of the Alps", due to its size and its proximity to the mountains.
Grenoble's history goes back over 2,000 years, to a time when it was a small Gallic village. It became the capital of the Dauphiné in the 11th century.
Industrial development increased the prominence of Grenoble through several periods of economic expansion over the last three centuries. This started with a booming glove industry in the 18th and 19th centuries, continued with the development of a strong hydropower industry in the late 19th to early 20th centuries, and ended with a post-World War II economic boom symbolized by the holding of the X Olympic Winter Games in 1968. The city has grown to be one of Europe's most important research, technology, and innovation centers, with each fifth inhabitant working directly in these domains.
The population of the city of Grenoble was 158,180 at the 2016 census, while the population of the Grenoble metropolitan area (French: aire urbaine de Grenoble or "agglomération grenobloise") was 687,985. The residents of the city are called "Grenoblois".
The many suburb communes that make up the rest of the metropolitan area include three with populations exceeding 20,000: Saint-Martin-d'Hères, Échirolles, and Fontaine.
I lived here for more than 1 year. Many places look so familiar....🙂

I really enjoyed your half-an-hour video. Some things have changed compare to 1992-1993. At that time, the Grenoble metropolitan area counted about 400000 souls. I was living in Île Verte and taking the B Tramway line almost every day. The "Saxo", that you recorded in the second half of your film, was one place I used to go at with friends. Thank you for this.
Nice video, thank you
Grenoble is wonderful
I love Grenoble Capital of the Alps.
Very nice, thank you!
Thank for this great video :)
YEAH MAN, THAT'S MY CITY 🙂
Bless you !
Is it a dangerous city? I mean in the criminality point of view?
@@mariawtr no more no less than any large city, mostly depends on the neighborhood (the South side area, where i once used to live, is pretty tough to be honest). Otherwise Grenoble is famous for welcoming many students from all around the world
@@MrWillywax where is the south side?
@@random_stuff2812 neighborhoods called Arlequin, Village Olympique and Vigny-Musset, you can Google Map them
Belle Grenoble, j'aimerais y aller!!.
J ♥️ Grenoble !

Did you have a walk on "Cours Jean Jaurès" ? It's the longest street in whole Europe straightforward (8 kilometers long, which is 5 miles, pretty much)
Willy Wax Beats ...I walked the blocks closest to to the city center, but drove it all the way till the end where one turns off to Vizilla.
@@MichaelJirochVisualArtist well, as you paid your respects to my homeplace, did you ALSO know that the very town of Vizille is ACTUALLY the place that made our French Revolution happen ?
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assembly_of_Vizille
Willy Wax Beats ...I remember vaguely reading something about it while I was Vizille. But almost everything I’ve ever read about the revolution has said it started on an in-door Tennis court...in Versailles. Tennis Court Oath?

@@MichaelJirochVisualArtist what made the Revolution definitely happen did take place in Paris and Versailles, as the political power was concentrated there. True. But for a riot in Grenoble which triggered off the assembly of Vizille, it might have taken much more time.
Pourquoi mon commentaire a disparu ? J'ai grandi dans cette ville;
cafe des alps on the road up to the fort
I loved it .. Would like work in france which is one of my dream from Indian gal..is any can help me there
there's a famous fountain? And 'The Day of the Tiles'? ...and Who was the Dauphin(oise).
I thing you must take permition to show some people face in the video ???
HIP HOP if they were in their own homes...yes, but in when someone is in the public, they are called ‘in the public domain’.
My city, when i am young;. Pourquoi en Anglais ?

Une of the most dangerous city of France
Erick64 Bosck why do you say that? I thought Marseille was.
@@MichaelJirochVisualArtist
Today on 2020,Grenoble is now very dangerous, not like Marseille, because Grenoble is smaller but becoming very dangerous.
The grenoblois families move now to live far away, like Uriage or others mountain villages
Erick64 Bosck, but I never once felt threatened there, or feared being mugged or robbed. I went to public areas and squares and music events. I didn’t go to low income areas.
You're lucky,but statistics aren't so optimist than you; Grenoble is now the third most dangerous city outside of Paris after Marseille and Montpellier
Erick64 Bosck ...but why is that? Immigration? Low employment? High poverty levels?
