I didn't know that Arles was a Roman city, but I guess that would make sense as the Roman Empire had surrounded most if not all of the Mediterranean sea. They still have events in the arena such as bullfights and a Spanish festival, which I also didn't know they had in France. Therefore, Arles seems to have some Andalusian influence as well. The theater is hard to make sense of, they have a fence around it so we couldn't go in. I guess they are still excavating it. They even had Roman baths, as this was a favorite city of Constantine and his successors.
