Orange by Jakob Frenzel

February 2022 - after visiting Arles, Nimes, Pont du Gard and Avignon all on the day before, we really didn't feel the urge to visit more Roman sites that morning. The local Market in Orange was active that day so we prefered strolling between the stands and trying some delicacies. We visited the tremendous backside of the Amphitheatre, the Arc we could also see from further away. We did not pay the high entrance fee though, just to take another shot of the Amphitheatre. Maybe that was a mistake, but we still had many plans that day. I like the idea of the tentative site which encompasses all the Roman sites in southern France. Orange definitely deserves the status, but with Nimes soon being added, it might be just too many single sites of the same character within one Region.
