Travelling to Avignon

Avignon

Travel to Avignon

Travel Eurostar to a historic city of art and culture. In the summer take a direct train to this jewel of the French Riviera, or throughout the year reach the gateway to Provence with a single simple connection.
In this former papal city you'll find a warm and friendly atmosphere, thanks in part to its large student and gay communities.

Travel to Avignon for its fine architectural heritage: a large area of the city is classed as a Unesco monument.

Walk up the path to theRocher des Doms a rocky outcrop on the bank of the Rhone giving spectacular views over the city, including the statue of the Virgin Mary atop the Notre Dame des Doms Cathedral. At the top of the "Rocher" explore the pretty park with its caves and duck ponds.
