In Provence, a small village with the style of southern France, Gordes is located on a rocky mountain. Simple stone houses can be seen everywhere.
Blue coast full of flowers
The blue coast is full of flowers, and the air is filled with the smell of brown sunshine. Every household is full of flowers, antique stone roads, colorful wooden doors, bright Mediterranean sunshine and hot south wind.
Characteristic windows of small towns
A family full of flowers
There are many small shops along the mountain road, covered with Provence-style local products, olives, lavender spices and soaps, southern colored ceramics and Provence-style tablecloths. Out of the hustle and bustle of gold, we came to an unknown quiet village nearby. Simple stone houses can be seen everywhere, which is a major feature of Provence.
A quiet monastery has a different kind of beauty.
Senanque Abbey
Senac Monastery was built in12nd century, and now it has become the best place to watch lavender. From June to early July, large areas of purple lavender bloom brilliantly. What we see is a monastery that has harvested lavender. There are some bare temples in front, but there are few noisy tourists. A quiet monastery has a different kind of beauty.
Tudor's windmill cabin
The prototype of the cabin in Dodd's famous novel Letter from the Windmill Cabin. In front of the hut, you can still feel the wonderful scenery of Provence in that era in summer.
Lazily enjoying the warm sunshine of the Mediterranean.
Standing at the highest place in the village, the pink flowers beside the white rocks are so beautiful that you can see the whole harbor. Many tourists are in the open-air cafe, drinking wine and enjoying the warm sunshine of the Mediterranean. The local people have a beautiful bronzed skin, women are all dressed up coquettishly, and men like to show off their strong arms and surf in the sea. Southerners are more talkative than people anywhere in France. We also let go of our tongues, drank fennel wine and talked with them endlessly. Olive pickles, ham and plates are empty and full, and the sun is still high in the sky.
The highest mountain in Provence-Mount Santovito.
Mount Santovito, the highest mountain in Provence, is Cezanne's favorite mountain. He painted more than 20 oil paintings related to it in his life. This limestone volcano is steep and straight, with blue sky and vineyards.
The outdoor market is permeated with fresh Provence flavor.
The outdoor market at the foot of the mountain is full of fresh Provence flavor. Fresh Mediterranean fish, olives of various flavors, colorful ceramics, colorful traditional Provence costumes, and watery vegetables and fruits in the south all make us want to live here.
The old people are playing the classic iron ball game leisurely in the square, and the air is lazy. Olive and olive oil specialty stores of various flavors were crowded with tourists, and we also bought several bottles. This bottle of golden olive oil seems to contain all the bright sunshine in the south. Seeing the olive trees in the distance makes me feel a little lonely and have the impulse to go far away. He holds my hand tightly, yes, no matter how far it is, he will take me with him.
