Travel around Provence to Explore Ancient Roman Heritage

I was quite inquisitive about learn something about the Roman Empire and the life ruins present among the most prominent towns around Provence, France. Last Summer I boarded a ferry at Dover port in England, reached Dunkerque, and headed for Paris through the silent motorways to reach Paris. At Paris, I boarded TVS, headed for Avignon, and toured for next few days the seven magnificent hill top towns around Provence. In good old days, Popes and Bishops lived in wonderful castles, which still last to this time and shower the resplendent spell, an impeccable fortress of the medieval times. The culture in this region is cosmopolitan in nature and differs from rest of towns. This is due to its huge tourist gatherings and high density of students’ population. Second, in line, LeBaux de Provence is listed as the best among the all villages for sightseeing around Provence; no doubt, Le Baus de Provence is at a distance away from Provence and history dating to 16th century and is claimed with 22 architectural treasure held together as historical monuments.

In addition, if you count they will be Churches, town halls, chapels’ doorways, etc. The streets are narrow and as you walk to the shop you will get wonderful antiques’ replica of past. Nimes is a relic that reminds of past, Roman heritage and the amphitheatre is the epitome of rich heritage then prevailed. You can observe a Marche de Noel,a “Christian Market” at Maison Carree and in the summer you will find Jeudis de Nimes, conducted on Thursday and during these times you get lot more of food dance, street merchants bargaining with tourists and these activities continue of late night. Just another town, Arles from past holds bull fights not to death, which is not the usual way to play and the custom and tradition of ancient Rome are still continued on this arena. This area is frequent to engage the art displays and many Photographic events are conducted. A great picturesque can be judged at a spot where Rhone River splits into two parts at the upstream of the city. This is a small town that can be scouted on bare foot and then you will definitely find the streets and restored houses lively and appealing to any bystander. Cours Mirabeau is the central point to the Aix and nowhere to compete with this place filled with pleasing terrace cafes and stationary and bookshops. On the other side, you should not miss for the striking avenues among the aligned trees. At this place, you will get warm air with people strolling and a good site for people-watch.

Sle Sur La Sorgue a town to be remembered for the antique markets on Sundays. This town is surrounded by Sorgue River and narrow canals pass through the periphery of the town. Wonderful bridges, water-collecting water wheels, and this village backdrop represent good photographic scenery. This place is internationally well acclaimed for Antiques fairs held twice a year and that attracts huge tourists around the year. We could make our presence at the Easter weekend and lucky enough to get a deal for around $100 and the antiques were Victorian vanity mirror plus holder to hold perfume. Saint Remy de Provence known as enchanting ancient town with streets aligned with beautiful, renovated homes, smart boutiques, attractive cafes with mural paintings and divine sight of old fountains. Pottery is one of the ancient handicraft business well equipped to send delivery to distant places round Europe and America. At saint Remy every week, Wednesday picked up by locale as major market day and Saturday as smaller food markets. These towns are certainly a pleasure trip for enjoying the rich Roman heritage and I sailed to sea by ferries for England .
