Premise: Between the estuaries of the Touques and Dives rivers, 20 km (12 miles) of sandy beaches, handsome villas, and picturesquely ?­weather-beaten old hotels give a nostalgic peek at Napoleon III's Second Empire and the Belle Epoque of the 1900s.

Hypothesis: Because of the nostalgic look into the 1900s, this area is a busy tourist area.
Relation: neutral
