Marne-la-Vallée/France: Groundbreaking Ceremony for Villages Nature

A groundbreaking ceremony will be held today on the construction site of the Villages Nature project near Paris in the presence of French Prime Minister Manuel Valls and other political personalities of the region. The joint project of Euro Disney and Pierre & Vacances/Center Parcs, which has been in development for more than ten years, involves the construction of a unique eco-holiday destination with 916 cottages and apartments as well as a variety of leisure offerings, including a state-of-the-art waterpark as main attraction. The opening of the holiday resort is scheduled for 2016. More details about this project can be found in our upcoming magazine issue, EAP 1/2015, published at the beginning of January. (eap)
