The geographically diverse
region of Provence is ideally situated between the
Mediterranean coastline and the Alps and is known for
celebrating the simple sensuous pleasures of life.
Visitors can explore ancient
Roman ruins, medieval fortresses and charming hilltop
villages. They can hike the Grand Canyon du Verdon, ride the
famous white horses in the Camargue or simply take a picnic
basket for a day in the countryside. The valleys are
carpeted with lavender and the fields are filled with the
sunflowers and olive trees that Van Gogh loved to paint.
Marseille, France’s oldest city,
is a bustling port with a lively local atmosphere. Avignon,
the old Papal residence, is now a cheerful town of cafés,
art galleries and fashionable shops. Aix-en-Provence is a
university town filled with students and offers shady
streets and17th century mansions. The harbor town of St.
Tropez is long famous for its glamour and beauty. There is
something for everyone in the region of Provence.
