Spend A Day in Uzes
Explore · Guest Post · Road Trips South of FranceIt takes just under 2 hours to get to Uzes from Aix and is well worth the visit. It’s a charming little town (pop. just over 8,000) which is unspoiled by modern developments. And it has a terrific Saturday market.

Things to do in Uzes and a unique chateau that is for sale.
