Bistro Royal

Dark rooms, optical tricks and jumpy surprises make this more of a spooky walk through than a traditional museum.

Odd records and interactive challenges work especially well with school age kids who like weird facts and competitions.

Excellent burgers served quickly make this ideal when the goal is feeding everyone before the next meltdown.

A central department store with clothes, toys and practical kid gear is useful when you need several things at once.

A polished kids section right on the main shopping street makes this easy to fold into an adult shopping day.

A beautiful central splurge with calm common spaces, best for families with older kids who do not need a playroom.
