Streets squares and districts to visit Provence

Vaison-la-Romaine is an indispensable site of the Upper Vaucluse  : a historic city of greatest archaeological interest built in a beautiful green setting. The ancient theatre, the sanctuary at the Porticos, the house with the Apollo… the city brings together a multitude of ancient relics that can be visited. The medieval era also left its mark, through its cathedral and cloister dating from the th century. You will enjoy walking on these typical Mediterranean streets. Since 1992, and the spectacular flood of the river crossing it, the city has been renovated. It is now a major tourist place, where lovers of beautiful stones, architecture and also town planning are pressing. All of this adds to the sweetness of living in Provence, a festive and festive tradition, and a warm welcome.

Leaving the port, opposite the ferry terminal, visitors will get to the Algiers shopping street. Before taking it, go directly to your right and discover this charming cobbled square where you will be happy to see the famous card game between Caesar (Raimu) and Panisse, immortalized in bronze. Seated while playing (full size), you will find two empty seats where you can sit and share a surreal moment with them! The expression of truth and attitudes is found in their faces. You can take pictures!

It was on the initiative of a local goldsmith and notable local, Jean Boyer, this alley was converted in 1848 into a walkway covered with iron and glass hence its nickname: "the glass street." The ground floor is a succession of small clothing stores, shoes and accessories. We like the old tailor and the shoes with Italian brands. A double row of buildings in regular order. It is located in the city center, close to the halls. Worthy of the Italian Bologna, these halls are an obligatory passage in Carpentras. One will equally find a very good fishmonger, a gardener, a tea room, a bakery and an excellent library.

Come and visit Le Castellet and its surroundings! You will discover alternately the bay of La Ciotat in the south, the Bandol vines to the east and the camp plateau to the north. From Le Castellet, you will have an exceptional panorama from a door in front of the castle square, you will be surplomberez the massif of Sainte-Baume which is part of a typical Provencal landscape, made of vineyards and olive trees!
