videos, transcripts & photos at townsofeurope.com/ We are taking you to the beautiful city of Arles, in Provence in the south of France. Arles is most famous for its Roman amphitheater, still intact, and its connections with Van Gogh, who spent one of his final years here painting 200 canvases. Its real appeal, however, is found in the lovely pedestrian promenades, the historic landmarks, museums and tranquil plazas, all of which make Arles one of the most charming places in Europe.

There's a lot of these narrow streets in Arles, there is a small pedestrian zone, there's the various squares and the cafés around it, of course, and historic sites. And we will be showing you those highlights coming up right now as we take a walk through Arles.
The old town of Arles is comfortably small. It's about a square mile. So it's very easy to see the whole thing on foot. You might consider spending a couple of days here.
Or you could visit as a daytrip for example from Avignon which is just 20 miles away and only takes 20 minutes by train to get here. In this program we will show you how you can do everything in one day but certainly if you want to spend more time you decide for yourself. To help you plan your visit we will also present more detailed suggestions about how you could spend a night or two here and still find lots to do.
This is part of a series we’re presenting showing how Avignon makes a very good home base for visiting out to other destinations like Pont du Gard, and St Remy and Nimes along with Aix and Marseille, and especially Arles, the wonderful city of van Gogh and the ancient Romans, with narrow pedestrian lanes weaving throughout the center
The main attractions are the arena, the pedestrian zone and a historic museum. We will show you a good walking route on the map. Of course you can walk anywhere you want, it’s small enough, but this route will take you right through the center and then back to the train station, a route just over 2 miles, or about 3 kilometers, you can do in several hours. But you should also see the history museum while you're here, with its fine collection from the ancient Roman days, an easy detour. So let's assume you're coming in from Avignon on a day trip and you want to see everything.
notre ville elle est vraiment belle il faut le dire que nous somme fière d'etre ARLESIENS ET ARLESIENNES ,nous a l'on la porter vers le haut elle le mérite vraiment ARLES EST ANTIQUE
I love the south of France! We stayed for 3 months exploring little towns like this. We also went in the fall (October through early January) and the weather was heavenly. No huge crowds. And the prices were reasonable. That trip helped us realize we want to get residency in France (my partner and I are Americans). We'll start the process in 2023.
Nice, have you guys moved to france already?
@@GPbSWAGGINit No. My husband got a very nice work contract here and is negotiating another one shortly. We need the income. We're thinking moving to France may have to wait a couple more years. 😥Thanks for checking, though.
Hold onto the dream!
these long films focussed on small towns are wonderful!!!
I live in Arles, and your documentary is awesome 👍🏻
I never knew anything about France.
I wish I could afford to visit.
Very Beautiful❤️
With a name like that you better like it 😄 Do you know what « chauvin » means in french ?

Awesome place and definitely a place to visit
Tonguetied and speechless with the awesome beauty of it all.Praying to God that someday I may be here done with viewing on my tablet. Commentator is brilliant. A beautiful dream to dwell on.
Thanks for the video...visited Arles in 2013 and loved it
Thank you Dennis, for the gift of these videos! In this time of no travel, they are a great substitute.
All your videos are great, and your commentary throughout is much appreciated. Thank you
Wholeheartedly thankful, Mr. Callan, for such a fascinating video-story about a place I fell in love with on my first visit there many years ago. Back from a second half-day trip to Arles early in July, you film was just another chance to cherish a far more comprehensive picture of Arles
20 years ago I spent a week in Arles & enjoyed it even though I missed many of the touristic sites shown in this travel documentary. I appreciate the way he walks through the streets which offers up memories of streets I walked through and places where I spent time, especially sidewalk cafés & art galleries, my main reason for being there.
Wonderful video Dennis, such a beautiful place, ,thanks for showing us,Brian ,uk,

Your video on Arles is excellent while visiting this historic Roman city & relics that are still seen like The Arena , Amphitheatre. Of course it is also takes us back to the days of Van Gogh who spent very creative artistic time in Arles . I have visited Arles & was charmed by this ancient adorable place !
Very informative, thank you 😊
Excellent travel video of Arles. We were in Provence last month and planned on going to Arles but the schedule could not accommodate. Having watched this video I feel that I DID visit Arles after all and in such a detailed manner. I will have to visit next time. Thanks so much for this wonderful presentation and please keep them coming. Not sure that Rick Steves or Rudy Maxa could have done Arles as much justice as you have.
Well- presented, very interesting- with a blend of historical background and a walk through side streets. Thank you.
Bravo!This in depth presentation really captured the atmospheric flavor of what I hope to be one of our vacation travel destinations, in the very near future. I really appreciated the suggestions on how stay in one place, as a base from which we could plan do day trips to other towns and villages in the south of France.Excellent travel blogs.

Thank you for this little tour. We will be in Arles in September on a day trip from Avignon
Thanks for a lovely video.
I first went to Arles about 12 years ago primarily to visit the ancient Roman theatre (not the Arena) and simply fell in love with the place. The two nights we spent in a superb little hotel were not enough and every time I get back back to France I have always made a point of visiting.
Very detailed visual information with the narrative.
Thank you so much. Very informative.

Dennis Sir, another Vedio with Awesome Energy and Thirst for going through the every Details and Explain the Area is Outstanding ..! 👍
You made a great and nice job in presenting different places in Arles. I noticed the city is not so small as it is on the map, and your video made it look large
Interesting information about small tows with own history
Very nice clip. Thks!
I love the video!
Wow i really enjoyed the watching this video, i wish to visit france
An Instagram pic of Arles piqued my interest in the town.......and I'm thrilled I chanced upon this movie. Excellent pace of presentation, giving an overview of the town, with their locations and possible walking routes, followed by a more detailed and beautifully explained visit to all the major tourist spots, as well as the not-so-touristy ones. Can't wait to go through your other videos, starting with Avignon.
Thank you, I've got 12 Avignon videos for you bit.ly/34ZyGYI with more detailed scenes and tips on getting around.
Really nice presentation
Love Dennis Callan videos from Europe, they are so beautiful, please continue with the videos. Thank you
I am just back from a three day drawing trip to Arles and your movie is the best one I have found to revisite the places I have been to and discover others I didn't see. Thank you for your enthusiasm and joy of life.
