Palais des Papes is a very significant historical sight. Must visit for everyone coming to Avignon. . . The building looks remarkable from outside. Inside it gives you an opportunity to explore some halls where previous inhabitants lived with a description of what did they do. On the top of the building you can find a spectacular view on the city of Avignon. Try to enjoy it. You can see the fortress across the river which belongs to Vilnev des Avignon.Overall it is a great experience

South France is still very beautiful, sweeping away the haze of London and Paris, with the same good sunshine as Barcelona. Many foreigners will bask in the sun here on the English Street.

Such a pretty place with a lot of interesting boats! Took some great pictures 📸The only downside is that during the night a lot of creepy men hang around the area :(

Angel Bay Pebble Beach, France: A Tranquil Mediterranean Paradise The pebbly beach of Angel Bay is Nice's most recognizable landmark and a unique feature of the Mediterranean coast. Unlike the soft, fine sand of typical beaches, this beach is paved with millions of smooth, rounded pebbles. Over hundreds of years, the pebbles have been sculpted by the waves, their color gradually changing from off-white and light gray to jet black. Each pebble leaves a crisp, natural sound underfoot. During peak season, the beach is lively yet tranquil. Blue and white parasols dot the pebbles, creating a stunning scene against the backdrop of the gradient blue water and the distant, crescent-shaped bay. In the afternoon sun, the pebbles reflect a delicate shimmer, and walking barefoot, while requiring a little adjustment, offers a natural foot massage. The crystal-clear, refreshing water is perfect for swimming; fish can be seen darting about, and novice and experienced snorkelers alike enjoy the view from the shore. Evening is the golden hour on the beach. The setting sun casts a warm orange glow on the pebbles, the waves gently lap at the shore, and the palm trees along the Promenade des Anglais sway in the breeze. The distant Castle Hill and the red-tiled roofs of the old town provide a stunning backdrop. Here, there is no commercial hustle and bustle, only the leisurely sunbathing of locals and the sweet whispers of couples. You can experience both the vibrant spirit of the Mediterranean and the laid-back charm of Nice—a hidden gem of a Mediterranean paradise worth slowing down and savoring.

Don't miss the Ile d'If when you are on vacation in Marseille, France. Go to the pier and buy a ticket for the time you want to go. The signs at the pier are also quite clear. It doesn't matter if you don't speak French. Just go to the place where there are many people queuing. Price: I remember that it seemed to be more than ten euros to buy a round-trip ticket. Because a friend happened to be studying in Marseille, I went there for a few days. I got used to the life in the north of France. The south of France is simply too charming. The sun, the island, the sunset at nine o'clock... Everything is too charming... The local environment nurtures the local people, so the people in the south of France are so lovely. It was quite fun to go there by yacht. It was quite bumpy, and you could see many people playing various water sports on the sea. I didn’t expect that I would get seasick when I returned to the main island of Marseille. I vomited on the roadside after dinner with my friends. But the passers-by in Marseille were very kind... They gave me tissues and water and asked my friends if I was okay... Although I felt uncomfortable in the car, I felt the enthusiasm of the people in southern France. I recommend everyone to come to Marseille.

Tickets were issued very quickly, and the local staff just took a picture of the QR code. The castle was very average, and there were many primary and secondary school students traveling, so the experience was relatively poor. There were Chinese instructions, which was quite convenient. The on-site queue to buy tickets was 7 euros, and those with EU residence permits under 26 were free.

Notre-Dame de la Garde Cathedral is the symbol of Marseille. It is built on a hill 150 meters high, from where you can overlook the entire city of Marseille, the port of Marseille, and the scenery of the Mediterranean Sea.

The old town of Nice has well preserved various styles of ancient buildings since the 18th century, such as Baroque churches and Italian-style buildings. Walk into the maze-like old town, stroll through the winding alleys, admire the brightly colored and different styles of buildings, and shop in the unique shops. If you walk to the Cours Saleya, you will immediately see all kinds of bright fruits, candies, and flowers, which are dazzling. If you are tired of walking, you can find a restaurant or cafe and sit in the open air to taste the specialties and famous dishes of Nice.
