Ramparts, towers, palace, red roofs and steeples seen from the Rhone gives you the impression that Avignon might be an imaginary city from a old tale.
Provence seems to have a different light, a different sun, a different time... You'll live with an unreal feeling of the past, under a perfect sun, and a little bit slower than usual... Everything is there for a perfect vacation!

Very interesting and unusual tips. Nice photos.
The Avignon you are talking about is NOT in Franche-Comté but in Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur.
You must create a new page in the correct region and move the current one where it should be.
Looks wonderful and beautiful...thanks for the introduction!
