Grenoble is a city of around 158,000 inhabitants located in south-eastern France, in the Rhône-Alpes region that encompasses the French Alps.The climate is quite cold in winter, with days of snow almost every year. Summers are known to be hot, as mountains surrounding the town stop any wind.Grenoble is crossed by two rivers, the Drac and the Isère, the lion and the serpent, and is surrounded by three mountain chains, the Vercors, Chartreuse and Belledonne.Grenoble is the largest urban area in the French Alps, boasts a unique mountain setting, and through the centuries has made its mark as a pioneering city open to the world. Out of this tremendous human melting-pot has emerged an economy that draws its strength from close ties between industry, university and research. The city is renowned for its universities on the campus, for its scientific research centers in the northeast of the city. Grenoble is the leading research centre in France outside the Paris area. There is a large population of foreign scientists and students.Grenoble is a beautiful little city full of charm, fairytale-like since it is a sleepy beauty set amidst a backdrop of snow-capped mountains.
