Roussillon Village
#celebratewithtrip
Walking in the alleyways of Roussillon
The village is very beautiful, the yellow and ochre colours tint the houses and you can enjoy discovering the narrow streets. We enjoyed a walk in this small village with colourful houses. At every corner of the street, we discover new colours. At the bend of a crossing, a narrow staircase leads us to another alleyway. The colours are warm and we appreciate the visit. The house with ochre colour decorated with rosebushes and flowers. The village also offers beautiful views of the surrounding area.

The stone town of Gordes in southern France
Gordes is scattered on the hillside of a steep slope, surrounded by continuous mountains, with vast fields and vineyards at the foot of the mountain. The whole town seems to be planted in a sea of green forests.
This town is known as the stone city, and all the buildings and structures in the city are made of stone: churches, houses, residences, walls, streets... The uneven stone exterior walls and the bumpy stone pavements, after 600 years of sun, wind, rain, and snow, though a bit mottled and weathered, appear more rustic, sturdy, and resilient.
Walking along the staggered steep streets, you can see painting studios at any street corner, and small roadside shops selling various hand-painted artworks; the loquat trees in the courtyards of the residences are full of yellow-orange loquat fruits, with branches almost extending outside the courtyard walls, seemingly challenging the self-discipline and curiosity of tourists; local elderly people sit quietly under the eaves at street corners, immersed in the lazy atmosphere they create, completely ignoring the bustling tourists and their gazes...
Passing by the small square of the main church, we chose a small restaurant next to it for lunch, ordered a pizza, a large vegetable salad, and three beers. The three of us were full and satisfied, especially praising the vegetable salad for its perfect balance of sweet, sour, and salty flavors!

The old residence of the Pope is Avignon
❤Recommended reason:
Avignon Old Town, the former residence of the Pope. The broken bridge is near the entrance of the old city, and the old city is full of historical sedimentation, suitable for aimless wandering or finding a roadside shop to sit.
🚉Travel strategy:
It's very convenient by TGV high-speed rail. Tomorrow

France, Red Clay City Roussillon
TobeJIN.
The legendary lord's young and beautiful wife fell in love with the troubadour, and the narrow-minded lord murdered the poet cruelly in revenge. The wife who loved the poet was not willing to steal the lover after she lost her lover, jumping off the cliff and dying. Blood stained red Lu Xiyong. Since then, this land has been showing a deep red. This bloody romantic red land has become the most unique landscape in the Luberon Mountains. In ancient times, the French called Viscus Russulus, which means "red mountain" in Latin, which vividly interprets the unique meteorite landscape of Roussillon. Roussillon, a mining field for pigmented raw materials, was famous from the Roman era and was once a world-class meteorite origin. The houses here are all made in situ, so all the houses are red outside, and from a distance they are a red fortress built on a red cliff. It is more beautiful in the small town of Nanfa, which is based on yellow.
France, Red Earth City

Red is the main color of the red clay city. The locals wear a variety of colors for their houses, making this beautiful town jump in different colors. The flower pots under the window sill, the flowers on the corners, and the thick green pine trees holding the medieval walls and the blue lavender swaying in the roadside, are pure in the pure blue sky and clean white clouds without Promise. It is already a dreamy watercolor.
France, Roussillon

It's hard to imagine that in a small town in the south of France, which is based on khaki, there is such a small town hidden in color. Although it is called the red clay city, it will be discovered when you are really close to it. The whole town of Roussillon is colored, and it is no wonder that it will be selected by the French government as one of the classic villages.

Sophie's French travel notes
Provence in southern France has a lot of beautiful and characteristic towns and villages. The red clay city is also one of them. It is also about 20 miles away from the other two scenic spots. A minute drive away, these 3 towns are the most recommended for the Avignon itinerary.
The red clay city was built along the hillside. From the moment of entering the afternoon, I felt that every place was a scene of oil painting. No wonder France has so many famous painters.
Most of the cottages in the villages are painted with red clay, partially exposed with neat bricks, giving a sense of ancientity. Walking in the city, take photos and take pictures.
