International Symposium on the Biology of the Palm Family



5-7 May 2010 - Montpellier, France (Corum)


 

 Conference venue




We are pleased to welcome you in Montpellier.
The city is located on hilly ground 10 kilometers (6 mi) inland from the Mediterranean Sea coast on the banks of the River Lez.

Montpellier's highest point is the Place du Peyrou (Peyrou Saquare), at an altitude of 57 m. The city is built on two hills, Montpellier and Montpellieret, thus some of its streets are pretty steep!  Other streets are very old and narrow, which gives to the City its unique historical and intimate feeling. We just hope that you will grab this opportunity to enjoy a memorable "al fresco" dinner in one od the numerous restaurant located in the historical centre named l'Ecusson


 

 

 


       
The meeting will be held in the heart of Montpellier, located at the Conference Center:  Le Corum.
