Exit walking

Arles is a great place to walk around.  Many people walk into town from the train station, pulling their roll-aboard bags or wearing backpacks.  Over the last few years, many of the streets have been torn up and replaced with a type of cobblestones, and electronic pylons have been installed in many roads that provide access inside the old city.  There is definitely less car traffic, which makes walking safer.

This is what the city looks like near the newly-restored gates of the city.  I walked there this afternoon.

We head to Paris tomorrow.  Au revoir Arles!
