A tourist guide to Pau will tell you that there are thousands of reasons to go there, and you will quickly discover that there are almost as many to love it. Its gentle way of life makes it one of the favorite cities of the French. Its palm trees and exceptional gardens give it a special atmosphere that the view of the snowy peaks makes even more pleasant. A historical city where Henri IV was born, its royal destiny has left it a rich heritage and an irresistible architecture. A cultural city with one of the most beautiful Zeniths in France and a fine arts museum, unique events such as the F1 Grand Prix and the Tour de France, the capital of Bearn lives all year round and this is surely why 12,000 students choose to study at its renowned universities. The walks here are fabulous with notably the boulevard des Pyrénées, a hypnotic life-size balcony, and a historical district faithful to its 19th century tourist vocation. The companies linked to the high-tech and research sectors make it an avant-garde city, and its "Halles" (covered market) testify to a strong attachment to a gastronomy based on local products: from the famous Russian to the Jurançon and the "poule au pot" (chicken in a pot), you will discover that traditions and modernism go well together! The city has a well-built convention center and a unique white water stadium. It has also seen its Pyrenees Palace updated, brand new, and its pedestrian center redesigned.
When to go to Pau ? All year round, without a doubt. The many museums and monuments of Pau can be visited all year round, and each season has its own charm. Summers and winters are mild and temperate, which makes visiting the city even more enjoyable. As a very touristy city, it is perhaps preferable to visit in spring or autumn. Prices are lower during this period. Nevertheless, winter offers a magnificent contrast between a city full of palm trees and the view of the snowy Pyrenees.
Pau has a warm oceanic climate, which gives it a very pleasant atmosphere all year round. Summers are mild (25 or 26 °C on average) and winters are not too harsh (often around 8-10 °C). Generally, the Indian summer continues quite late until October. If it rains regularly (oceanic influence), the rains rarely last long and are generally followed by the "beautiful blue sky of Pau".
