The Old Papal Palace (not in the Vatican)

I didnโ€™t know there was a Papal Palace in France until I visited one in Avignon. It was an old building but still pretty interesting. The place Is really big and good for 2 hours long. There is an interactive tablet that serves as a guide as well. It makes use of VR so that was pretty cool. Itโ€™s the main attraction in Avignon and a must visit, although itโ€™s not something incredibly breathtaking. Cool experience nonetheless.

If you ever find yourself in Avignon, you have to check out the Papal Palace. This isnโ€™t some dusty old ruin โ€” itโ€™s basically the medieval Vatican, only with better Provenรงal sunshine. Back in the 14th century, the popes moved here and built a fortress-meets-palace so huge you could get lost inside. Wander the echoey halls, climb the towers for epic Rhรดne River views, and imagine the political drama that once filled these rooms. History, power, and a killer backdrop โ€” whatโ€™s not to love? #adventuremoments #Palace #france
