Nîmes
Nîmes, a city in the Occitanie region of southern France, was an important outpost of the Roman Empire. It's known for well-preserved Roman monuments such as the Arena of Nîmes, a double-tiered circa-70 A. D. amphitheater still in use for concerts and bullfights. Both the Pont du Gard tri-level aqueduct and the Maison Carrée white limestone Roman temple are around 2,000 years old.
