Car Rental at 'Nimes Train Station'

No less interesting site is a cultural center, known as "Square of the Arts" (Carré d'Art). It is housed in a beautiful modern building of regular rectangular shape, the facade of which is completely lined with mirrored tiles. Given the fact that in the immediate vicinity of this building there are unique antique attractions, it looks more than impressive. Today the museum's collection consists of several hundred paintings, among which there are works by famous artists from various Mediterranean countries. Also, the cultural center is used as a venue for temporary exhibitions, and on its roof, there is a terrace café offering a great view of local attractions.

In the vicinity of Nîmes is a unique antique attraction that is currently protected by UNESCO - a fragment of the Pont du Gard, an ancient Roman aqueduct. It is remarkable for its scale: the bridge's fragment is 50 kilometers long, it is the largest construction of its kind in France. Given that the aqueduct was built in the 1st century BC, we can only guess at how grandiose the architectural creation was for its time. A few years ago, an interesting interactive museum was opened next to the ancient landmark, a visit to which makes the excursion even more fascinating. In recent years, much effort and money have been invested in the reconstruction of the historic bridge.
