Les manifestants bloqués place de la République à Arles
Alors que les gilets jaunes arlésiens repartaient du Vittier par la voie rapide pour retourner à pont de Crau, une partie des manifestants a bifurqué vers le centre-ville. Ils ont traversé le marché, criant Macron démission ou chantant la Marseillaise, avant de se diriger place de la République, ou un barrage de CRS les a bloqués. Les forces de l'ordre ont été huées, avant que les gilets jaunes ne s'agenouillent, en référence aux lycéens interpellés dans les Yvelines. Ils sont ensuite repartis, non sans avoir entonné une nouvelle fois la Marseillaise, pour le seul moment de tension d'une manifestation plutôt bon enfant.

The town hall of Arles , located on the Place de la Republique, is a building completed in 1676, the greater part of which is now classified as a historic monument. It is still the seat of the City Council of Arles. In 1657, during a particularly lavish and opulent episode for the city, his council wanted to build a new town hall instead of the common house dating back to the end of the Middle Ages and which was located between the old palace Podestats and the clock tower. It took nearly twenty years for the project to see the light of day.
Several projects were rejected before that of Louis-Francois de Royers de la Valfenière was retained in 1666. It was immediately started, but in the spring of 1667, when the construction amounted to about 4 meters , the Avignon architect reported many defects. His report, followed by a lawsuit that lost the masons, concluded the obligation to shave what had been done ... The demolitions made, the city council sought to improve the project, which caused 5 years of hesitation on the drawings to remember.
Finally, in June 1673, a new market was spent on the drawings of the architect Jacques Peytret and the sculptor Dominique Pilleporte. But at the end of the same month, the unexpected passage of Jules Hardouin-Mansart in the city brought still modifications: the Parisian architect proposed new elevations for the facades, a displacement of the staircase and especially convinced the council of the possibility to vault the vestibule of the ground floor without any intermediate pillar
On the ground floor is a vestibule with a very low vault, formed of two cradles at right angles, falling in the ends of the oven and connected to the walls by glasses. Despite the range reaching 15 m , the vault of the vault is very weak. The visitor is there before the absolute masterpiece of French stereotomy , which brings together with unparalleled virtuosity all the characteristics of this art - lowering, play of apparatus, nudity of intrados.
The main staircase leading to the council room is framed by two lions sculpted by Jean Dedieu . It is adorned from the beginning of the Venus of Arles , an ancient Greco-Roman discovered at the ancient theater of Arles , but today it is a copy of the work modified by Girardon whose original is now in the Louvre. On the facade of the first floor is a balcony framed by double columns. On the second floor, a central pediment featuring a sun, symbol of Louis XIV, a decoration of balusters and pots-a-feu.

Arles, Provence in the south of France
We are taking you to the beautiful city of Arles, in Provence in the south of France. Arles is most famous for its Roman amphitheater, still intact, and its connections with Van Gogh, who spent one of his final years here painting 200 canvases. Its real appeal, however, is found in the lovely pedestrian promenades, the historic landmarks, museums and tranquil plazas, all of which make Arles one of the most charming places in Europe.

There's a lot of these narrow streets in Arles, there is a small pedestrian zone, there's the various squares and the cafés around it, of course, and historic sites. And we will be showing you those highlights coming up right now as we take a walk through Arles.
The old town of Arles is comfortably small. It's about a square mile. So it's very easy to see the whole thing on foot. You might consider spending a couple of days here.
Or you could visit as a daytrip for example from Avignon which is just 20 miles away and only takes 20 minutes by train to get here. In this program we will show you how you can do everything in one day but certainly if you want to spend more time you decide for yourself. To help you plan your visit we will also present more detailed suggestions about how you could spend a night or two here and still find lots to do.
This is part of a series we’re presenting showing how Avignon makes a very good home base for visiting out to other destinations like Pont du Gard, and St Remy and Nimes along with Aix and Marseille, and especially Arles, the wonderful city of van Gogh and the ancient Romans, with narrow pedestrian lanes weaving throughout the center
The main attractions are the arena, the pedestrian zone and a historic museum. We will show you a good walking route on the map. Of course you can walk anywhere you want, it’s small enough, but this route will take you right through the center and then back to the train station, a route just over 2 miles, or about 3 kilometers, you can do in several hours. But you should also see the history museum while you're here, with its fine collection from the ancient Roman days, an easy detour. So let's assume you're coming in from Avignon on a day trip and you want to see everything.

Place de la République, une place de choix du Grand Paris
Il y a encore peu de temps, la Place de la République était un immense carrefour au cœur de Paris où seules les voitures semblaient avoir leur place. Tout a changé en 2013. Le renouveau de la Place de la République a été l'occasion de rétablir sa fonction de place publique à l'échelle du quartier, de Paris mais aussi du Grand Paris.
Pierre-Alain Trévelo, architecte/urbaniste et co-directeur de l'agence TVK en charge du projet, ainsi que des usagers ont accepté de partager leur vision de ce nouvel espace urbain.
//Place de la République, a Greater Paris' highlight
Few years ago, the Place de la République was a large intersection in the heart of Paris dedicated to cars. It changed in 2013. The renewal of the Place de la République was seen as an opportunity to re-establish the function of the public square at the level of the neighbourhood, Paris inner-city and the Greater Paris.
Pierre-Alain Trévelo, architect/city-planner and co-director of the TVK agency in charge of the project, and users accepted to share their point of view of that new urban space.

Sabotage de la corrida Arles, France 9-9-2017
Ce 9 Septembre 2017, Arles, France Feria du riz.
deux activistes pacifistes, membres de Vegan Strike Group, ont sauté dans les arènes d’Arles, pour interrompre une corrida, dénoncer sa barbarie, et exiger son abolition.
Vegan Strike Group se bat contre l’utilisation d’animaux à des fins de divertissement.
Après de nombreux sauts cette année en Espagne, et en France à Dax et à Bayonne, les activistes revendiquent haut et fort qu’ils ne s’arrêteront pas de sauter tant que la Corrida ne sera pas abolie.
Muni des slogans « NO MORE CHILDREN INSIDE BULLFIGHTS » et « MACRON NE CONFONDONS PAS BARBARIE ET TRADITION », Vegan Strike Group interpelle directement le président de la République, afin de le mettre face à ses responsabilités : Emmanuel Macron ne veut pas que la Tauromachie soit abolie alors que le peuple de France le souhaite, les statistiques vont de 75 % à 85 % en faveur de l’abolition.
Vegan Strike Group continuera de se battre jusqu’à ce qu’il n’y ait plus un seul lieu de souffrance et de mort pour les animaux.
