Nimes


Nimes was established by Emperor Augustus, and was a prospering city until 2nd century A.D. It was well-populated due to the natural spring that was found in Ales, which brought water to the city through the Pont du Gard.

Nimes city breaks are perfect for a relaxing holiday, as Nimes is located at the bottom of the Cevennes mountain range. The mountains, which are located within the southeast of France, provide an amazing backdrop to any city break in Nimes. Nimes also provides some of the best Roman architecture in the world, which includes nimes Arena, as well as a relica of the Colesseum in Rome. Nimes is also popular during Easter and summer when people come for the Spanish style ferias or bullfights.
