An ancient building in Cyprus is very famous. This place is also a very huge space. The palace itself is also quite unique in design style. The Longshan Palace can also feel the fun content. It is a very unique building.

Arles Arena is the most visible landmark of the town, visible from anywhere in the city. It is a Roman-era circular gladiatorium, about 2,000 years old, with 120 arches dating back to the 1st century BC. The arena, which can accommodate more than 20,000 spectators, is used for chariot races and bloody unarmed fighting. The arena is still in use today, with a grand bullfight in April and an open-air theater for drama and concerts in the summer.

The bridge of Saint-Benezer, also known as the bridge of Avignon, is a famous medieval bridge in the southern French city of Avignon. The inspiration for the French national song "On the bridge of Avignon" was the 22-hole stone bridge built in the 12th century, which became world famous. The bridge was originally about 900 meters long, but it collapsed due to frequent flooding and had to be rebuilt many times. After the huge flood in 1668, most of the bridge was washed out and finally no longer used. It has since been abandoned and no one has tried to repair it. The surviving arches have also collapsed or been demolished, and only 4 of the original 22 arches have been preserved today. Standing on the broken bridge in the Rhone River, looking around, you can better understand the vicissitudes of the ancient city, and the broken bridge has become a scenic spot in Avignon. According to legend, the bridge's architectural design was inspired by the local shepherd, St. Beneze, and an angel ordered him to build a bridge across the river. He was initially mocked, but miraculously he removed huge stones to prove that he had God's help, and won the support of the rich. The bridge was also the place where the Rhododendrons worshiped their patron saint, Saint Nicholas. They first worshiped at the old chapel of Saint Nicholas on the bridge (where Saint Benezer's body was buried), but the bridge was in disrepair, causing clergy to fear the bridge's collapse and refuse to attend the ceremony. In the 18th century, a new chapel was built on the land at the bridge's head on the side of the bridge in Avignon. The bridge is strategically important, the only fixed bridge between Lyon and the Mediterranean, and the only bridge between the papal territory of Avignon and the French mainland under the control of the French king, so both sides of the river are guarded and guarded. On the left bank controlled by the French royal family, the powerful Philip IV tower and the castle of the new city of Avignon were built. On the side of Avignon, large gate buildings were built in the 14th century (substantial modifications in the 15th century) through gates, through walls and a ramp to enter the city.

The South Fagarde Waterway Bridge was one of the great public cities built by the ancient Roman Empire to transport people's livelihood. The bridge in South Fagarde has three floors and is built in the middle of the river, which is listed as a world cultural heritage registered by the United Nations. Locals also treat him as a good place to play water rafting.

The Fort Eve is located on a 3-hectare limestone island about 1 mile from Marseille's old port. It is a 28-meter square building with three cylindrical towers with wide shooting holes on the walls. The Fort ve was originally proposed by King Francis I of France to strengthen the defences of Marseille, and was completed in 1531 and used as a prison shortly after its completion. In 1844, the French literary magnate Dumas completed the creation of the Count of Monte Cristo in the context of the Fort Everett, the hero of the framed and imprisoned, and this prison is the famous Fort Everett.

The great semi-amphitheatre, built during the reign of Augustus the Great in the 1st century, was designed to accommodate nearly 10,000 people at the same time. That is, everyone in the town of Orange could walk into the theater at the same time. Since 1869 more than 100 years ago, the Orange Festival has been held every summer. The small rooms in the rear passage of the grandstand are the small doors on the right side of the fifth photo. They are opened into multimedia exhibition halls, featuring videos of different dramas and festivals from ancient Greece and ancient Rome to today. Of course! The theatre is also a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Do not miss the island of Ives on vacation in Marseille, France. Go to the pier and buy a ticket for the time you want to go. The pier indicators are also more obvious. It doesn't matter if you don't know French. It's good to see the place where there are many people queuing. Price: I seem to be more than ten euros in my memory when I buy a round-trip ferry ticket. Because I happened to have a friend going to school in Marseille, I used to play for a few days and I was used to the life of North France. The South Law is simply too charming. Sunshine, island, sunset at nine o'clock...Everything is too charming..... ...one side of the soil to raise one side of the people so the South French people are so cute. It was quite fun to take a yacht in the past, it was bumpy, and I could see many various water sports on the sea at the same time. I didn’t expect that when I returned to the main island of Marseille, I was seasick. After eating with my friends, I vomited on the side of the road.. But the passers-by in Marseille are very kind ... help me send paper towels and water to me to ask my friend how are I still...Although I am not feeling well by car, I feel the enthusiasm of the people of South France and recommend everyone to come to Marseille to play.
