Nimes, famous for its roman monuments
Between the Cévennes, the Mediterranean sea and Provence, the Roman city Nîmes opens its gates to you and gives you two thousand years of history where Gallo-Roman monuments stand side by side with resolutely contemporary edifices.

A festive break in Nîmes life, the bullfights at Pentecost attract nearly a million visitors. For five days, the bull is king.
But people don't come to Nîmes just for the bullfights. They come for the party atmosphere, the pastis and Fino sherry and the music. They stay for the street entertainment, the extravagance, the bodegas. And they come back for the ambiance and the encounters they have made.
