Villeneuve-lès-Avignon
Medieval Villeneuve-lès-Avignon lies on the Rhône river beneath the imposing hilltop Fort St. -André, with its well-preserved 14th-century battlements. The Chartreuse de Villeneuve lez Avignon convent has peaceful cloisters and an arts center, and Musée Pierre-de-Luxembourg shows religious art. Saturday market Marché et Brocante sells antiques and food, while delis and al fresco Provençal bistros dot cobbled streets.
