This Roman outpost also acted as a retirement home for Roman officers who had conquered Egypt. This is enshrined in the towns emblem of a crocodile and a palm tree.
Nimes Roman amphi-theatre has survived mostly intact and dates from 1st or 2nd century AD. The walls, which served as ramparts, were removed under Napoleon.
The theatre is still used to stage musical events and even bull fighting. It is impossible not to be impressed with the Roman Engineers, especially after seeing the Pont du Gard part, built with stone and cement to carry water across the River Gordon and forms part of a large aquaduct.
