Location of Narbonne rental
NARBONNE
The property is located on the eastern edge of Narbonne in a residential area, 2.5km from the town centre and 18km from the closest beaches. The nearest shops are 500m.
Go to the main square in Narbonne, where you can walk on the original stones of the "Via Domita" a major roman road, that ran through the city. Narbonne was the principal Roman city of the area, and remains can be seen in the Horreum, a now underground warehouse, found in the old town.
Overlooking the main square is the Archbishop's palace, part museum, part administrative centre, which links to the Cathedral, astounding in its size and grandeur (there are often concerts to see).
The Cathedral overlooks the Canal de la Robine, which links the Canal du Midi with the Mediterranean, and boats are available for hire for day trips. Also near is a very good and colorful Halles - covered market, which expands on Thursday and Sunday mornings to a colourful market along both sides of the canal.
There are numerous restaurants, bars, clubs in the town, offering a wide variety of choices. There is a large sports center with olympic size swimming pool, and water slides; a skating rink, and bowling alley, all accessed by a restaurant popular with children.
