Rocher des Doms Gardens<br />
A short walk from the cathedral you’ll find<br />
the Rocher des Doms park. From its peak you<br />
have panoramic views of the Rhone river. It’s<br />
a beautiful park, centred around a pond which<br />
is home to swans and other waterfowl, and<br />
offers a green refuge from the summer heat to<br />
tourists and locals alike.<br />
Clos de la Vigne<br />
Within the Rocher des Doms park the Clos de<br />
la Vigne is the only AOC intramural vineyard<br />
in France on a UNESCO World Heritage site.<br />
The small parcel of vines features 12 grape<br />
varieties for red and white wines. Grapes<br />
are harvested by hand, and in 2021 the first<br />
bottles of matured wine were auctioned<br />
for charity. The vineyard overlooks the river<br />
Rhone and the famous Saint-Bénézet bridge,<br />
the town’s emblem and yet another UNESCO<br />
listed monument in Avignon…<br />
