Arles has an ideal location, especially for trip lovers. You can take advantage of the optimal location, in order to make trips to Avignon, Saintes Maries de la Mer, with its 14 km beach, Les Baux de Provence, St Rémy de Provence, Salon de Provence, Marseille with its old port, le Pont du Gard, etc. You can even travel to the biggest bridge of the world le Pont de Millau, which is higher than the Eiffel Tower and longer than the Champs Elysées. Arles itself has a wonderful historical center (Roman arena, amphitheatre) and it is a pleasure for walkers, thanks to its narrow streets. There are many restaurants with Provencal delicacies which are very inviting for the Gourmet. Not only 'Place du Forum' with its numerous terraces and restaurants is a must, but also the world wide known 'le Café van Gogh', the former favourite place of the famous painter, which he immortalized in the painting 'Le café, le soir'.
