Avignon, Palais des Papes
Several popes and antipopes lived here from the early 14th to early 15th centuries.

Arrived in France at 6.30a.m. and cycled from Orange to Jonquieres campsite, where we left off last year, along peaceful lanes with vineyards and the smell of perfume in the air. It was good to be back! Continued to Avignon the next day and stayed overnight after touring the city during the afternoon and having dinner in the main square.
