Provence Provence is an area that invites you to rent a house and spend some time. Provence offers superlatives but the real reasons to go are the atmosphere, environment, and food. Among the best tourist towns are: ►Aix-en-Provence History, art, thermal baths and interesting museums blend in Aix to produce a welcome respite. Be sure to see Cezanne's Studio (Lauves Studio). ►Arles is rife with Roman monuments and is a noted UNESCO World Heritage Site. Be sure to see the Arena (amphitheater) and the Baths of Constantine. For art lovers, follow the Van Gogh walk to relive the time that the great artist spent here creating some of his most impressive works. In addition, Arles is the Gateway to the Camargue (a large and beautiful salt marsh between the branches of the Rhone River). |
