About town

As I walked around Arles this afternoon, I thought that if we could see Arles from Abbaye de Montmajour, then if I located the right spot, I would be able to see Montmajour from Arles.  The  right place turned out to be next to Eglise Notre Dame de la Major, above the ramparts on the east side of the old city.  The church is just to the east of the Arena.

My other thought was to include some of the odd architectural elements that people build around.

And old arch preserved between two buildings

Roman ruins incorporated into a hotel at Place de Forum
