Nimes France.
Nimes was colonised
by the Romans in the 1st
Century.
Important remains
of the Roman Empire can still
be seen here today. These include the splendid
Amphitheatre, the maison Carrée temple and
the nearby Pon du Gard Aquaduct.
This is a vibrant
town with much new
architecture as well as the old and plenty of
shops and restaurants to choose from.
The Spanish influence
is also evident with the
bullfighting ( which takes place in the old
Amphitheatre) and the many Tapas Bars.
