This is the tallest Roman bridge ever built! Hand-carved stone by stone, Pont du Gard stands nearly 50 metres high.
Constructed without mortar, its arches have held firm for almost 2,000 years and once carried water to Nรฎmes.
Over the centuries it deteriorated until Napoleon ordered its restoration

6 Epic Reasons to Visit Sun Peaks Resort This Summer and a few Adventures on theย Side Sun Peaks Resort may be known for its powdery ski slopes, this mountain gem in British Columbia transforms into a vibrant summer playground of festivals, wildflower hikes, outdoor concerts, and off-road adventures. Craving a midsummer escape from the city, my 19-year-old son, Thomas, and I strike out for one of my old stomping grounds: Sun Peaks Resort. Called Tod Mountain Ski Resort when I skied there as a teen, it's come a long way since it was home to just a few chairlifts and T-bar, a couple of day lodges and parking lots, and a smattering of slopeside cabins and A-frames.
