Arles Amphitheatre

Sooo beautiful, even more so than the one in Nîmes... way more destroyed, though

The arena at Nîmes is wonderful but the arena at Arles simply knocks it out of the park. What is left after the Arlésiens mined it for stones to build other things is incredibly well preserved. You can climb right up to the top seats and get a wonderful view of the town.

No long wait till you can get in. Good for younger people if you want to climb up. Good for photography. Great piece of history

Small entrance out the front, so queue can be long. It’s a massive amphitheater which was cool however not much to see, just going up and around. So you won’t need a lot of time here.

Would be a bit challenging for children and older people with the steps and lack of safety.

Ancient Roman ruins almost intact. Gladiators fought for freedom.
Easy to find from the town square with plenty of cafes, small restaurants and some retail outlets.
Toilets 🚻 are found in the square.

The amphitheater in Arles is amazing, as is the city itself. We enjoyed every minute here. Everything in the city has Roman history which I really liked. Any recommendation for visiting Arles, its sights, as well as small wonderful cafes. definitely pay attention to the fact that Van Gogh also lived and worked in this city, so you will be able to find a lot of postcards and other souvenirs with his works, and you can also visit the cafe that Vincent painted.

Walking around it is enough to get a fine idea and feel for the place. The interior is not as impressive. There are plenty of other things to do and visit in Arles.
If your time is limited, just walk around and keep enjoying the town. There are some great restaurants across the arena to enjoy the view.
