Arles is a charming city in the south of France with a rich history where Roman heritage and Provençal life intertwine. The narrow streets, the sunshine that inspired Vincent Van Gogh, and the atmosphere of a small European city create a unique mood for walks and discoveries. The city retains traces of antiquity and the Middle Ages, but at the same time lives modern: markets, cafes and cultural events make it attractive all year round.
Among the man-made attractions are the Church of Saint-Trophim, closely associated with the history and architecture of the region, and the monument to Frederick Mistral in the square of the Forum, erected in 1909 in honor of the Provençal poet. Arles is also known for its Roman monuments - the arena and ancient baths, which carry to the era of antiquity, and museums and art routes fill the city with artistic life. These places are mandatory points on the list of things to see in Arles.
The natural attractions around Arles are no less impressive: the Camargue Reserve on the Provence coast is known for its salt meadows, pink flamingos and wild white horses, and the Rhone, originating in the Rhone Glacier and flowing through Switzerland and France with a length of 812 kilometers, forms picturesque promenades and floodplains. The surroundings offer beaches, protected areas and places where you can feel the characteristic Provencal nature and the unusual light that glorified this region on the canvases of Van Gogh.
On our site you can see all these attractions on an interactive map: each point is signed, provided with a brief description and a photo, which helps to plan the route around the city and the surrounding area. Map tools allow you to make the optimal route for a day or several days, mark your favorite places and estimate the travel time between objects, so that your trip to Arles was convenient and rich.

Local guides will help to delve into the topic of Roman heritage, Van Gogh’s work or the natural features of the Camargue, as well as suggest routes for interests and activities.
