Orsan is situated next to the road that leads from Bagnols-sur-Cèze
to Avignon. Every first of May, you can come to the bullfight that is held
in the village. You will see abrivados, bandidos, and you can enjoy roasted
meat in the company of the townspeople. During the afternoons, you can attend
the races called "rasets" which are held in the arena.
|
| shops |
There are very few shops in Orsan, due to the proximity of
Bagnols-sur-Cèze. You can find only one bakery, a tobacco shop, a
café, and a highly rated restaurant. |
