AVIGNON 4K — City of Pope in FRANCE — South of France, Occitanie

📹 In this 4K video you will drive in AVIGNON the French city of the Popes. An UNESCO WORLD HERITAGE Site 🇫🇷 Between 1309 and 1377, during the Avignon Papacy, seven successive popes resided in Avignon and in 1348 Pope Clement VI bought the town from Joanna I of Naples. Papal control persisted until 1791 when, during the French Revolution, it became part of France. The town is now the capital of the Vaucluse department and one of the few French cities to have preserved its city walls. The historic centre—which includes the Palais des Papes, the cathedral, and the Pont d'Avignon—became a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1995 because of its architecture and importance during the 14th and 15th centuries.[4] The medieval monuments and the annual Festival d'Avignon have helped to make the town a major centre for tourism. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avignon... 🌎 Location : https://goo.gl/maps/gap37PQZ36H5vsas8 ———⭐️ Route info ⭐️——————————— Drive date : 3rd of February Town : Avignon Drive time : 42:44 mn 🎬 Points of interest : 00:00 - Avignon 00:29 - Crillon gate 01:10 - Bridge of Avignon famous for its song and the fact that it is not a complete. 01:53 - Parking to the Palace of the Popes 03:06 - Entrance Former Salt Loft 10:05 - Square Maria Casarès 12:57 - Blocked in a very narrow street 16:11 - Gate Saint Joseph 29:30 - Cours Jean Jaurès 31:15 - Horloge Square 31:31 - Town hall of Avignon 31:53 - Theater and Opéra of Avignon 33:23 - Crillon Square 41:45 - Saint Rock Boulevard ———✨About ROADS & CITIES channel ✨——— R&C is a youtube channel dedicated to travel in FRANCE throw the lens of a camera.
