“After God had created and arranged the sun, earth, mountains and
seas, he still had a little of each left over. He put this all together
to create a paradise and so it was, that Provence came to be.”
This little corner of paradise is intoxicating with its perfumes,
flavours and colours, the cheerful hubbub of its markets, the song of
the cicada and the howl of the mistral wind. However its rich heritage
sites also bear testament to its illustrious past. The town of Arles, known as “the Rome of the Gauls” has proudly preserved its amphitheatre and Roman theatre. The Popes Palace of Avignon conjures up the splendour of the papal court during its time in Provence. The town of Aix proudly presents its Baroque and Renaissance palaces. Yet our audio guides will also show you a very different side to Provence: that of the Alpilles, Les Baux and the Antiques at St Rémy; the cliff-hanging villages of the Luberon such as Fontaine de Vaucluse, Gordes and Roussillon and the Aix countryside with the abbey of Silvacane and the magnificant chateau of Loumarin.”
