Avignon Travel Guide
Provence is certainly one of the most visited regions of France. It is easy to figure out why if you look at pictures, videos or if you experience the region by yourself. It offers unlimited things to do and the attractions are varied, from the luxurious city of Monte Carlo and Saint-Tropez to adrenaline loaded canoe tours and to peaceful medieval cities, unending purple fields of lavender and quality food, olive oil and wine.

Avignon, France - Palace of the Popes and other museums

Recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, powerfully built like a castle on the outside, on the interior, a sumptuous palace.
It was built as a home for the Popes because during the 14th century the Popes left the Vatican in Rome where they had always ruled from and relocated to Avignon here in France staying for nearly 100 years making this the most important center of power in Europe for a century, the city's Golden Period during which great mansions were built. Money flowed in, the wall was constructed around the town for protection. They created a dazzling palace fitting to their high position of authority and wealth filled with the finest furniture and artworks creating a massive structure 15,000 square meters in area, about four times bigger than the typical Gothic cathedral.
Then walk a few minutes north from the Place du Palais into a lovely public park called the Roche des Doms, resting on the top of a small hill overlooking the Old Town. From the ramparts take in the beautiful views across the rooftops of the city and across the Rhône River. Coming down will bring you to the Pont St-Bénezet, Avignon's legendary bridge built in the late 12th century and another UNESCO World Heritage Site.
One of Avignon's major museums is an art museum, called the Musée Calvet and is located in the lower section of Rue Joseph Vernet. The museum is set in a magnificent 18th-century mansion with collections of fine art and decorative pieces from the 15th through 20th centuries. You’ll find excellent paintings in here representing most of the important phases of art history.

A Guide to Holidays in Arc 1950 Le Village, the French Alps | Erna Low Ski Holidays
Hear from children and adults alike in interviews of families enjoying the resort of Arc 1950 Le Village. Some of the feedback includes how great the ski-in ski-out is - it's described as right outside the apartment. In fact, everything seems so convenient - as one lady explains 'you put your skis on and go... there's no need for a lift to the slopes because you're on a slope!'
The ski schools are exceptional and the apartments are described as 'much bigger' than one lady's previous experience of French accommodation.
With a variety of slopes, the resort is exceptionally beautiful with breath-taking views of the surrounding mountains. The village itself is also described as being really pretty with a great layout - there's a central area which is a great meeting location and the whole place has a 'really nice vibe to it'.
Suitable for the whole family, this resort is one of our favourites at Erna Low. If you are considering a family ski holiday this year, get in touch for the best tips of where to stay and what to do.

24 Hours in Avignon
In this video my family and I explore Avignon. We stayed in a charming apartment in the centre of Avignon and even though the building itself was a few hundred years old, the apartment was newly refurbished, making it very comfortable and homie.
In the first day we spent in Avignon, we looked for a nice place to eat, we went to the local fresh market to buy French cheese and pastry, we went to the Palace of the Popes and we had a walk on the main boulevard.
