groves and sumptuous trees of innumerable species, little

This
scenically beautiful village is set on a limestone plateau that
straddles the line between Provence and the Garrigues region, the
severe though charming countryside along the foot of the ancient
Massif Central. It is famous for the long-standing House of Uzès,
home of France's highest-ranking ducal family, who still live in the
ducal palace of Le Duché that dominates the town.
In 1962, the village was named one of France's 500 villes d'art and
has since taken good advantage of preservation funds set aside for
restoration of its historic district. However, the designation has
been viewed as a mixed blessing since many visitors, notably
Parisians taking a break from city life, have since discovered the
charms of the village.
