25 - 27 November 2015
We had two lovely sunny days in Montpellier.
I wanted to find a green space. It turned out that this was a really big ask, this particular afternoon.
It was harder than I imagined to get in! But I persevered...
And some interesting buildings
 |
| Jesus on a cross... surrounded by everyone's rubbish |
 |
| Boulevard of trees |
 |
| Le château d'eau (the bit on the right is a pool full of water) |
 |
| The bridge next to the château d'eau, and a cyclist |
 |
| You can't go on the bridge, but people have made the effort with the graffiti |
 |
| The view from the château |
 |
| The fountain. It was windy! |
 |
| Promenade de Peyrou |
 |
| The view from the top |
I wanted to find a green space. It turned out that this was a really big ask, this particular afternoon.
 |
| Caught a glimpse... |
 |
| And again with the bars... |
 |
| All these private gardens! |
 |
| Behind big walls |
 |
| And locked gates (this is the big park) |
 |
| I kept walking. The plants looked like they wanted to escape |
 |
| I found another entrance to the park, with the first gates wide open... |
 |
| But this was as close as I got. |
It was harder than I imagined to get in! But I persevered...
 |
| Another gate to the Jardin des Plantes |
 |
| I found my way inside! |
 |
| A corridor of tall trees |
 |
| Richer de Belleval, who created the garden |
 |
| Hobbit tunnels! |
And some interesting buildings
 |
| Cathedral |
 |
| Other side of the cathedral |
 |
| The Court of Appeal |
 |
| La Promenade de Peyrou |
 |
| Super colourful buildings |
