Arles is a Provençal city on the banks of the Rhône, known for its Roman heritage and its links with Vincent van Gogh. You can explore the old town on foot, among narrow streets, little squares, stone façades and ancient remains. This part of the city will appeal to travellers who enjoy combining heritage, museums and urban walks; the Arles Amphitheatre is 150 m from the house.

Roman monuments shape the visit: the amphitheatre still hosts events, while the ancient theatre bears witness to the city’s importance in antiquity. Saint-Trophime Cathedral and its cloister make another notable stop, and the Réattu Museum displays art collections in a former historic building. Arles railway station, 900 m away, makes it possible to reach the centre on foot with your luggage. The old town’s streets are easy to explore without a car, although one can be useful for discovering the surrounding area.

Arles can be visited all year round. In spring and autumn, temperatures are often well suited to long walks and outdoor visits; summer brings a livelier atmosphere and warmer weather. You can spend a day exploring ancient monuments and museums, then walking along the Rhône. To extend your stay, plan a trip to the landscapes of the Camargue and the Provençal villages nearby, while photography enthusiasts can follow the places in the city associated with Van Gogh.
