The city of Montpellier is the capital of the Languedoc-Roussillon region and the fastest growing city in France. Surrounded by vast wine-yards and the Mediterranean Sea to the south, Montpellier boasts a wide range of natural advantages, including its warm Mediterranean climate with 300 days of sunshine per year. The Spanish border is 90 minutes away and Paris can be reached in just over three hours by TGV high-speed train. Montpellier airport is well served by both domestic and international flights.

With a city population of 255,000 inhabitants (20% of whom are students) Montpellier is proud of its harmonious blend of medieval and contemporary architecture, its rich and varied cultural programme, its reputation as France’s number one sporting city, its developing tramway network, and its extensive university facilities and world-class research centres. It’s for these reasons and more that the New York Times identified Montpellier as one of the world’s top 45 places to visit in 2012.
