Aigues Mortes

This city is surrounded by impressive defiant medieval walls, protected or confined - you don't really know. But you can see it from afar and it doesn't seem friendly. Once inside the city walls, things look very different. Pretty, well-kept alleys and streets invite you to stroll, have an aperitif or go shopping. From the Walls you have an epic view over the marshland and the salines which color the water in an unreal pink. Usually you see flamingos passing by or resting in those pink lakes.

Aigues Mortes means " Dead water" btw. And that's cos of the salt. Clever eh?
