]]> If you’re planning on spending some time in the south of France this summer, make sure you check out the stunning city of Arles in the region of Provence. Arles dates back to the early Roman period, but that doesn’t mean this city is stuck in the past. There are plenty of exciting cultural sites across the city, and while many of them are linked with the famous artist Van Gogh who included Arles in many of his paintings, the city is more than just a walking tour of Van Gogh’s paintings. Check out some of the best things to do in Arles here.

Explore the City Streets

Like many older French cities, Arles has a stunning patchwork of small, winding streets interspersed with wider and grander avenues. It’s worth spending a morning simply wandering around, taking in the beautiful architecture and the atmosphere of the city.

Follow Van Gogh

Across the city, you may find yourself stopping and suddenly recognizing a street scene or a particular building. Vincent Van Gogh was particularly inspired by the bright, warm light in the south of France, as well as its buildings and landscapes. You can book a walking tour which will allow you to explore the city as it was experienced by the great painter himself.

Enjoy the Food

As a region, Provence boasts some pretty incredible dishes. When staying in Arles, see if you can sample at least one of them – how about some fresh ratatouille made with locally grown produce, a bouillabaisse soup made with fish caught fresh from the sea, some homemade aioli and fries, or one of the delicious fruit tarts which you will find in most bakeries in Arles?
