Avignon is a Provençal city shaped by its papal past, ramparts and old streets. Rue Baracane is in the old town, among stone façades and squares where you can take a break while exploring. The neighbourhood appeals to visitors who want to see the main sights on foot and discover a lively city beyond its monuments. Museums, gardens and markets also offer plenty of ways to vary your visits.

The Palace of the Popes, a vast fortified residence of the pontiffs in the 14th century, is 700 m away. Nearby, Place du Palais opens onto the streets of the medieval centre. Pont Saint-Bénézet, known from the song and its surviving arches above the Rhône, is 900 m away. Musée Angladon and Collection Lambert display art collections in historic buildings. Avignon-Centre station is 400 m away, making it easy to arrive by train and get around without a car. The ramparts provide access on foot to several old gates and gardens in the centre.

You can start the day with a visit to the palace, continue through the narrow streets and museums, then finish by the Rhône. In summer, the Festival d’Avignon brings the city to life with performances in venues and heritage sites; visitor numbers rise considerably at this time. Spring and autumn are good seasons for city walks and trips around the region. For a break between visits, Les Halles d’Avignon brings together Provençal produce and specialities. The Mediterranean climate makes it pleasant to spend time outdoors for much of the year, with hot summers.
