Quickly to the heart of Valence
Valence is located on the banks of the river Rhône and is therefore known as "the green city". Especially Parc Jouvet is highly recommended with its 7 hectares of beautiful trees, canals and even animals. Parc de l'Epervière is also a nice place to visit. The park is home to an orchard and the largest river marina in France.
The old town is adorned by extraordinary architecture, especially the two 16th-century houses Maison des Têtes and Maison Mauresque, because of their beautiful facades. Boulevards with pleasant shops, terraces and restaurants surround the historic centre. Don't forget a 'Suisse' with your coffee: the orange peel and orange blossom biscuit is Valence's speciality.
After a change of trains in Brussel-Zuid (Midi) or Paris, you can travel with TGV to Valence. Moreover, every Saturday in July and August Sun-Thalys will get you there directly.
