Many rivers to cross ...


Le Pont Julien is an old Roman bridge, fashioned from huge limestone blocks, built on the foundations of a 3rd century BC structure. The Roman army used the path on their travels from Turin to Narbonne on the Via Domitia.

Amazingly, this bridge was in use until about five years ago. Imagine the rumblings of the stones as eighteen wheelers kissed their worn surfaces...

  1. Did you make a wish from the top of that bridge? Maybe you thought of a new house in a new land, with gardens that stretched to the horizons.
