3. Pont du Gard Vers Pont Du Gard
The Pont du Gard is an ancient Roman aqueduct that crosses the Gardon River near the town of Vers-Pont-du-Gard in southern France. The Pont du Gard, built as three tiers of archways to bring water to the city of Nîmes, is the highest of all elevated Roman aqueducts, and one of the best preserved. It was added to UNESCO's list of World Heritage Sites in 1985 because of its historical importance. The aqueduct bridge is part of the Nîmes aqueduct, a 50-kilometre system built in the first century AD to carry water from a spring at Uzès to the Roman colony of Nemausus . Because of the uneven terrain between the two points, the mostly underground aqueduct followed a long, winding route that called for a bridge across the gorge of the Gardon River. The bridge has three tiers of arches, stands ...

4. Roman Theatre of Orange Orange
The Roman Theatre of Orange is a Roman theatre in Orange, Vaucluse, France. It was built early in the 1st century AD. The structure is owned by the municipality of Orange and is the home of the summer opera festival, the Chorégies d'Orange. It is one of the best preserved of all Roman theatres, and served the Roman colony of Arausio which was founded in 40 BC. Playing a major role in the life of the citizens, who spent a large part of their free time there, the theatre was seen by the Roman authorities not only as a means of spreading Roman culture to the colonies, but also as a way of distracting them from all political activities. Mime, pantomime, poetry readings and the attelana was the dominant form of entertainment, much of which lasted all day. For the common people, who were fond o...

Dans le sud de l'Ardèche méridionale, le long de la petite et sinueuse route entre Saint Alban Auriolles et Lablachère, vous trouverez un petit canyon célèbre pour ses 3 dolmens visibles depuis la route et accessibles en 10 minutes à pied pour des marcheurs équipés de bonnes chaussures. Notez que l'accès est plein de failles dont certaines font plusieurs mètres de profondeur. La prudence est donc de règle.
Les dolmens était, originellement, recouvert, maintenu et protégé par un amas de pierres et de terre nommé tumulus. Dans leur état actuel de dégradation, les dolmens se présentent souvent, comme ici, sous l'apparence de simples tables dont le remblai a été érodé au cours des siècles.
Même s'il reste encore une part de mystère sur ces mégalithes et sur leurs bâtisseurs, il est acquis qu'il s'agit là de monuments funéraires collectifs, vieux de quelques 4 à 5000 ans, ce qui nous ramène à la fin du Néolithique, plus communément appelé Age du cuivre
Il y a plus de 500 dolmens recensés sur tout le département de l'Ardèche.
Dans le fond du canyon, il y a par endroit encore un petit peu d'eau et toute la vie qui y est associée.

The Ardèche (Occitan: Ardecha) is a 125-kilometre (78 mi) long river in south-central France, a right-bank tributary of the River Rhône. Its source is in the Massif Central, near the village of Astet. It flows into the Rhône near Pont-Saint-Esprit, north-west of Orange. The river gives its name to the French department of Ardèche.

The valley of the Ardèche is very scenic, in particular a 30-kilometre (19 mi) section known as the Ardèche Gorges. The walls of the river here are limestone cliffs up to 300 metres (980 ft) high. A kayak and camping trip down the gorge is not technically difficult and is very popular in the summer. The most famous feature is a natural 60-metre (200 ft) stone arch spanning the river known as the Pont d'Arc (arch bridge).
