Avignon is a Provençal city surrounded by ramparts, crossed by the Rhône and shaped by its papal past. The old town is easy to explore on foot, among squares, narrow streets, stone façades and monuments. Face au Palais is on place du Palais, in an area animated by cultural visits and events. This address suits travellers who want to explore the city’s heritage while staying in its historic centre.

The Palais des Papes, a vast fortified residence of the pontiffs in the 14th century, is 50 m away. Pont Saint-Bénézet, known as the Pont d’Avignon, is 150 m away: some of its arches remain on the banks of the Rhône. Notre-Dame-des-Doms Cathedral and the Musée du Petit Palais round out the sights in the neighbourhood. Avignon-Centre railway station is 900 m away; you can then explore the city on foot, while Avignon TGV railway station can be reached from the centre by car or local transport.

For a day of sightseeing, you can start at the Palais des Papes, then head to the gardens of Rocher des Doms, which overlook the Rhône and offer views of the surrounding area. The narrow streets lead on to the squares and museums of the old town. In summer, the Festival d’Avignon brings the city to life with performances in theatres and various heritage sites; this period also attracts more visitors. Spring and autumn are good times to explore the ramparts and historic sites in often milder temperatures. For a day trip outside the city, the landscapes and villages of Provence are well suited to exploring by car.
