Montpellier, France's Place de la Comedie features a statue of the Three Graces and a historic Opera building.

Michael Carr
Montpellier is the true Southern France lady. Its allure lies in its many inviting squares, and their sidewalk cafes. This is a gem of the south, sitting at the border of the adored Provence region and the underrated Languedoc region. This is an urban center with great shopping, dining, historic attractions and museums.
