Avignon (Historic Centre)

#mytraveldiary Avignon felt like a city woven from history and culture. The Palais des Papes dominates the skyline, a vast Gothic palace that once housed popes. Walking its grand halls, I imagined the power and intrigue that once unfolded here. The Pont d’Avignon, half-bridge reaching into the Rhône, was equally captivating. The old town is filled with charming squares, lively cafés, and stone streets that seem unchanged for centuries. During the theatre festival, the whole city bursts into creativity. Avignon is where history and art blend seamlessly. #mytraveldiary
