For many, the most enchanting spot in town is the late-17th-century Promenade du Peyrou ' spacious classical gardens with a triumphal arch, an equestrian statue of Louis XIV, and, on a mound at the far end, a hexagonal chateau d'eau (water tower) that looks more like a temple, providing a fine view south to the Mediterranean and north to the C??vennes mountains.
There is no view east from the chateau d'eau.
