| Montpellier Overview |
| Young high-spirited students are the fuel keeping the fires of fun alight in the mediaeval quarter of this old city. Making up at least a quarter of the population, the students bring a vibrancy and avant-garde spirit to Montpellier, with theatrical productions, dance festivals, and a contagious nightly revelry. When one tires of watching the madly entertaining passing parade from the cafes on pl. de la Comedie the tourist office will get you guides and tours to the old townhouses, secret courtyards and staircases hidden behind massive 17th century oaken doors. Excellent museums and art galleries, offer hours of interest of a more cerebral persuasion. |
