Nature Walk in Avignon

Even the most urban cities hide pockets of nature for those willing to walk. Avignon's parks, gardens, and green corridors offer a breathing space between the landmarks — and some of the best views you'll find.

Avignon is the City of Popes, enclosed by remarkably intact medieval walls with the massive Papal Palace at its heart — a fortress-church that recalls the 14th century when the papacy moved to France.
