Avignon
is an avant-garde city and vibrant home of artistic
creation, yet it has not lost its medieval facade. In this
strange duality lies its charm. Avignon is the papal city.
In the shadow of the Pope's Palace, giant jewel box of
treasures, numerous museums, noble mansions, venerable
churches, a bridge famous all over the world and well known
ramparts will enhance the pleasure of your stay.
Gateway
to the Mediterranean, France's oldest and second biggest
city. A bustling port for centuries. Has elegant 17th
Century townhouses, modern hotels and a busy port. Climb to
Notre-Dame-de-la-Garde, the white church which is spirtual
home of the city. At sunset time stops and Marseille appears
the most beautiful place on Earth.
