Gard is where the Roman legacy meets the rhythms of the Mediterranean. It’s a department full of sun-baked landscapes, olive groves, vineyards, and extraordinary historic monuments that attract both cultural travellers and lifestyle seekers.

​

Nîmes, the capital, is a striking Roman city with a perfectly preserved arena, the Maison Carrée, and a vibrant old town. Uzès is one of France’s prettiest towns, with a maze of narrow streets, arcades, and a bustling Provençal market. Alès, Beaucaire, and Le Vigan each offer their own character, while Aigues-Mortes, near the Camargue, is encircled by medieval walls.

​

The Pont du Gard, a Roman aqueduct and UNESCO World Heritage site, is a must-see. Nature lovers enjoy the Cévennes National Park, the Camargue wetlands, and the garrigue-covered hills, perfect for walking and wildlife spotting.

​

Gard’s property market is rich and diverse, offering stone mas in olive groves, village houses, historic homes in Uzès, and Mediterranean-style villas with pools and views. It’s a sun-drenched destination filled with elegance, history, and Provençal soul.
