FRANCE - Provence - Arles
Arles is found in south-west Provence and between Avignon and the Camargue region. The sizeable town is most famous for two things - it's Roman ruins and its association with Van Gogh.
Although there are numerous places to visit in Arles the main star is the town itself : squares with bustling cafes, linked by narrow streets lined with antic houses looking old and faded. The famous Roman amphitheatre is a large and substantially intact round structure once used for gladiatorial competitions.
