Exploring Provence’s vast, rugged sprawl can be exhilarating — and daunting. From the salt marshes of the Camargue to storybook hilltop villages like Gordes to the lively Mediterranean city of Marseille, the famously picturesque French region offers an array of landscapes and experiences that could take months to uncover. Where to start? Arles and Avignon. Just 20 minutes apart by train, the Roman-era town of Arles and the medieval walled city of Avignon enfold a dense mix of architectural beauty, world-class art, sun-soaked Provençal gastronomy and Unesco World Heritage sites. Toss in ambitious new cultural spaces, a hint of urban cool and a high-speed rail link with Paris (about three hours away), and the result is a southern French smorgasbord that can be devoured in a weekend.
探索普罗旺斯地区高低不平的广袤疆域，是令人兴奋的事情，但同时也令人生畏。从卡马格(Camargue)的盐沼地，到戈尔德石头村(Gordes)童话般的山顶村庄，再到充满活力的地中海城市马赛，这片素以风景如画闻名的法国地区，为游客带来了目不暇给的景观与感受，足以让游客花上几个月的时间去发掘。该从哪里开始好呢?我们推荐阿尔勒(Arles)和阿维尼翁(Avignon)。建于罗马时期的小镇阿尔勒与中世纪城墙环绕下的城都阿维尼翁之间相距不远，乘坐火车仅需20分钟便可抵达，两地均集结了大量的壮丽建筑、顶级艺术、沐浴在阳光中的普罗旺斯美食和联合国教科文组织世界遗产。将野心勃勃的新建文化空间，几分都市的酷意和连通巴黎的高铁(车程约三小时)尽数抛诸身后，便可在一个愉快的周末，惬意地享用一道由法国南部呈献的文化混搭自助餐。
Starry Nightcap
星光下的睡前酒
A nocturnal walk quickly becomes an art history lesson. Heading west from Place Lamartine, you arrive at the riverside spot where van Gogh painted “Cafe Terrace at Night.” Strolling the east side of Place du Forum, you might recognize the scene from “The Night Café,” marked by a signboard. For drinks, avoid the square’s tourist traps and instead go around the corner to Baràvin, a cheerful wine bar, for a glass of medium-bodied local Château Mont-Redon red (4.50 euros).
夜间漫步很快变成了一堂生动的艺术史课程。从拉马丁广场(Place Lamartine)出发往西走，便会抵达梵高当年画出《夜晚露天咖啡座》(Cafe Terrace at Night)的那处河滨。在集会广场(Place du Forum)的东边闲逛，说不定能认出《夜间咖啡馆》(The Night Café)中的画面，那里也有一块标识牌。酒水方面，不妨避开广场上专坑游客的黑店，到角落位置的Baràvin看看，这是一间气氛欢快的红酒吧，可以品尝一杯当地的黑洞山酒庄(Château Mont-Redon)酿造的中等酒体红葡萄酒(4.50欧元)。
