Experience Repeatability |
May: 30 M. west of Avignon is Uzes. Overnighted at Mercure, 125$ . Population is 9,000 but with all the tourists the center is filled. Loads of people visit this intimate medieval town where 12th to 18th century white stone houses face narrow cobbled streets. Many outdoor cafes and restaurants because of sunny May climate. Since it is touristy and 60 miles from the Mediterrannean sea it is also more expensive. A must, must for those who love to see, smell and buy is the famous classy saturday open market thru town streets. Come before 8 am because parking is difficult. Provence items to buy. |
