Concierge.com's insider take:
The vast cobbled square of Place du Palais offers a crash course in the history of European architecture, flanked as it is by buildings dating from almost every century since the 13th. The Petit Palais, a former archbishop's palace, is much lovelier than the Pope's home. It now contains a world-class collection of Italian Renaissance paintings, including a transfixing Botticelli as well as works by Carpaccio and Crivelli. Among the most intriguing is a Gerini depicting the devil as a woman in a red dress (the tail and clawed feet are a bit of a giveaway).
Closed Tuesdays.
