WELCOME IN Provence !
The heart of Provence is in the hills that bind the sea to the mountains of the Alps. These are the sloping vineyards, the cultivated lands and colorful scenery that charmed Cezanne, Van Gogh, Chagall or Giono.
Provence is welcoming and offers appreciated Mediterranean climate.
La ville d’Avignon
Town located in the south of France, it is the capital of the department Vaucluse.
Capital of Christendom in the Middle Ages, Avignon has preserved an exceptional cultural inheritance from its History, and a large part of this is listed by UNESCO as World Heritage sites.
City of art and culture, it is today well known all around the world for its festival, as well as its famous vineyards.
Nearby :
The Luberon
Land of castles, perched villages and rugged landscapes, Luberon offers indeed a countryside bathed in light, but also prestigious historical and cultural sites.
Le Pont du Gard
From its 2000 years of history, overlooking the Gardon river, the Pont du Gard has withstood the ravages of time.
Its beauty is due to both its simplicity and grandeur. Indeed, it is the highest of all known Roman aqueducts, with 48.77 m height, obtained by superposition of three rows of arches, one behind the other.
The Camargue
The Camargue, wild and mysterious, is a unique natural environment. Amphibious territory, the ecological balance has been preserved in its history, it is primarily a country of emotion.
There, the flora, the fauna, men as well as the landscapes exude authenticity.
