Are you planning to stay in the Pyrénées-Orientales in the direction of Perpignan and its surroundings? Very good choice!
The last major city in the Mediterranean before the border with Spain, Perpignan is one of the most pleasant cities in the south of France. In the heart of the Roussillon plain and at the foot of the Pyrenees, it is marked by a strong Catalan identity. Salvador Dali said that it is the “Center of the World” or at least its station.
Located along the Mediterranean Sea, the coastal towns of the Pyrénées-Orientales department are very popular with the local population and tourists and offer many advantages. Between the sea and the mountains, you will not lack activities in this region. You can spend your stay in lazing in the sun or practice a nautical activity, the region opens its arms to you.
You will be seduced by its historical monuments, essentially medieval, as well as its charming canals and its natural spaces. Its parks and gardens make the richness of its territory and the quality of its living environment such as the Sant Vicens Park planted with alders, ash trees and poplars, or the Maillol Park which is a living space in the heart of the urban area.
Visit one of the symbols of Catalan culture, the Casa Pairal Museum, which is housed in the former 14th century military fortress, the Castillet, and has been classified as a historical monument since 1889. Or the Hyacinthe Rigaud Museum which is full of history. With an exceptional heritage, Perpignan is a city of Art and History.
Nature lovers will also find their happiness. A real haven of peace awaits them! The Saint-Nazaire pond where pink flamingos live in total freedom and more than 200 species of migratory birds. You can also visit the reed fishermen’s huts that border the pond.
