Orange

This town placed in the southern French department of Vaucluse is famous thanks to its Roman architecture; an amazing triumphal arc and an outstanding theatre built during the 1st century are UNESCO World Heritage sites. The Roman theatre is one of the best preserved in Europe, conserving its stage wall. The theatre has been used since 19th century as the setting for cultural events like an international opera festival. The old town is also remarkable because of its narrow streets and its buildings with a Provencal style where charming cafes and restaurants will surprise you with its local gastronomy.
