Provençal city in Vaucluse — anchored by the Palais des Papes (the 14th-century papal residence during the Avignon Papacy 1309-1377) and the surviving fragment of the medieval Pont d'Avignon. The walled Intra-Muros (the dense walkable medieval core) is the typical anchor. France has no DNV; long séjour temporaire visiteur or Talent Passport. Schengen. Roughly 50% cheaper than central Paris on rent, with deep Provençal architectural density, the Avignon Festival (July, the largest performing-arts festival in France), and direct TGV to Paris (2h40).
