Snapshots of Nîmes


I had an overnight stay in Nîmes on my way to Quillan and wish it could have been longer.


It was a warm evening and I enjoyed strolling down the pedestrian boulevard between the train station and the centre of town.



Nîmes has been called the most Roman city outside of Italy and it’s easy to see why.


The old city is a maze of narrow alleyways and sun-filled squares. It’s definitely a city that invites you to take your time and relax. The absence of cars is particularly restful.
