The “Les Baux de Provence” valley is a wonderful place for gastronomy with many Michelin-starred restaurants in the area, vineyards and olive oil mills for tasting and discovering the specialities of the region. Situated in the heart of the Alpilles, Saint Rémy is one of the 'must-sees' of Provence. Surrounded by lush green perfumed valleys, its ancient streets are lined with beautifully restored old houses. Strolling through the narrow winding streets there are many old fountains, shady squares, picturesque restaurants and elegant boutiques, 'hôtels particuliers' (often converted into museums or art galleries), convents, chapels, and ornate houses from the 17th and 18th century. Arles is surrounded by an environment of exceptional beauty: the banks of the Rhône river, the plains of Crau, the Alpilles hills and the untamed Camargue and has many important Roman remains - the arena, the Alyscamps burial grounds, the amphitheatre and the Roman baths of Constantin.
