Funny stuff from France is my last post about my 2-week trip to southern France. This is a picture heavy post because it is so much easier to show a pic with a short description instead of writing a lot. But, I will start with a story. On the first Wednesday of every month there […]
Walk through Marseille is my last round up of cities I visited in France. I am sharing highlights from the city which were not included in previous posts. Marseille is really big and there are a lot of things to see there. This view of Marseille was taken on the way to the church Notre-Dame […]
Aigues-Mortes is a small town in southern France. I have so many pictures from it and it was hard to narrow down. I made a couple of collages to reduce the number and there are still over 20 pics. The town is home to just over 8,000 people, which doubled in the last 50 years […]
The Cosquer Cave is a museum which houses the replica of Cosquer Méditerranée. I was unable to take pictures in the cave, but I will share a few from the museum and with the exterior. I’ve embedded some pictures they shared on Instagram. This cave was discovered in 1991, which was an incredible achievement. The […]
I shared pictures from Palais des Papes, papal seat, and now I am sharing pictures from my walk through Avignon. It is a lovely city, well worth visiting. Besides the gorgeous papal palace, which is an important building for historical reasons, there are many more interesting attractions to see in Avignon. Remparts d’Avignon are the […]
Bees. A Story of Survival is a special exhibition at the World Museum in Liverpool. It opened in May this year and it is on until May next year. It offers an immersive experience and it is really good. I’m sharing a few highlights from our visit. The whole exhibition is in low light with […]
Palais des Papes, in Avignon, was fantastic to visit. It is a very important historical place for many reasons. The palace is one of the largest and most important medieval Gothic buildings. It is impressive through its size, as a fortress and palace. On top of that it was a papal residence during the 14th […]
After talking about 2 important Roman buildings, Arènes de Nîmes and Maison Carrée, today I take you on a walk through Nîmes. It is a lovely city with great transport links. Nîmes could be a great “base” for day trips to nearby cities, such as Avignon, Montpellier, and Marseille. I would like to go to […]
Arènes de Nîmes and Maison Carrée are two amazing Roman constructions in Nîmes. They are about 5 minutes walk from each other. There are joint tickets, which include a tower and a museum. I haven’t seen the tower, but I saw the museum, which will be included in a round-up of Nîmes. Arènes de Nîmes […]
Palais Longchamp is called a palace, but in fact is a water reservoir. This gorgeous fountain which has two museums, on each side is a beauty, well worth visiting in Marseille. It was built after the cholera pandemic of 1835 and the project involved constructing a 85km canal to bring water from the Durance river […]
