Tillens Square and Coghen Square - two green gems, similar yet so different. Discover a picturesque area with old workers' houses, vegetable gardens and probably few surveillance cameras. It is part of the Chat district, a kind of housing estate which was probably used to resettle the inhabitants of the Marolles, a district in the city centre which was partially razed to the ground when the Law Courts were built in the late 19th century. It almost feels like the countryside. There are about ten such dead ends along the route - a reminder of the rural past of this colourful municipality.
