P323 - France- Fontaine de la Loire in Nantes


Fontaine de la Loire, Place Royale, Nantes, Loire-Atlantique, France




Nantes is a city in western France, located on the Loire River, 50 km (31 mi) from the Atlantic coast. The city is the sixth largest in France, while its metropolitan area is the eighth with 804,833 inhabitants at a 2008 estimate.

Nantes is the capital of the Pays de la Loire region, as well as the Loire-Atlantique département. It is also the most important city of the historic province of Brittany, and culturally still remains strongly identified with it.

In 2004, the magazine Time described Nantes as "the most livable city in all of Europe".

南特(法文:Nantes,布列塔尼語:Naoned)是法國西北部重要城市,城市主體座落于盧瓦爾河下游北岸,距入海口(盧瓦爾河匯入比斯開灣)約50公里。南特是法蘭西第6大城,都會區的人口為711,120人(1999年人口調查),估計在2007年時有790,318人。

南特同時是羅亞爾河地區與大西洋羅亞爾省的首府,它也是布列塔尼地區歷史上最重要的城市,在文化上也是如此。南特這個名稱是源自於Nemn tes,這是一個羅馬帝國攻占高盧之前定居於此的一個部落。

時代雜誌在2004年時將南特選為歐洲最適合居住的城市。
