Review:

Nimes is a historical treasure tucked between the Carmargue, Cevennes, Languedoc, and Provence. The city has historical sites that are more than 2,000 years old. Highlights include the massive Roman arena and a beautifully restored Roman temple called the Maison Carree. In addition to these treasures from Roman culture, there are fine French relics as well, many of which are concentrated in the city center and include examples of architecture from the Middle Ages and the Renaissance. To truly experience the pulse of Nimes, visit the Les Halles, which is a covered market in the city center. Here, you can soak in the sights, sounds, and tastes of the city.
