CAPITAL: GAP - Gap sits on the road linking Grenoble and the Mediterranean ports so was once an important market town. It was largely destroyed during the Wars of Religion but is now a peaceful town full of bars, restaurants and bustling markets. It has a 19th-century cathedral and the attractive square of Place Jean-Marcellin surrounded by pastel-coloured buildings.
