While the slipways have long ago ceased to exist, the city has not allowed itself to fall into rack and ruin, but has recreated itself beyond any imagination. It has become a destination for art enthusiasts from all walks of life, and with such a wide range of items on exhibit in diverse guises, visitors are sure to be inspired and, more than likely, impressed. The summer months are when Nantes really comes alive, with the yearly return of Le Voyage a Nantes, when it is transformed into a true show by innumerable artists.
