Arles is a city in the Provence region of southern France that sits on the banks of the Rhône River. In fact, it is famed for its influence on the paintings of Van Gogh, which has had a great influence on the contemporary art exhibited at the Fondation Vincent Van Gogh. There are many remnants of ancient Roman times in Arles, including its amphitheater (Les Arènes d'Arles), which now hosts plays, concerts, and bull fighting in the evening. Arles used to be a provincial capital of ancient Rome.
