Located in southern France, south of Arles and west of Marseille, the Camargue is a little-known region that's full of marshy wetlands teeming with wildlife.
Here, cowboys — called gardians — ride white horses on the beaches and herd black cattle, while flamingos wade in the shallow marshy waters.
The Camargue is known for its beautiful white horses, which are considered to be one of the oldest breeds in the world.
