Last week, for Karen's birthday we went to les Baux de Provence, about 45 minutes drive away, the village is listed as one of the most beautiful in France. The village enjoys wonderful views from the chateau and is a highly popular tourist attraction. Closeby is the Cathedral d'Image, a huge quarried cave where images are projected on to the walls, this year of Picasso's art work with carefully chosen classical music creating a very special experience.
You can see here how the roads have been literally carved through the rocks.
From here we headed to the nearby town of St Remy de Provence, one of our favourites, with it's many shady squares, fountains and a wonderful choice of restaurants and galleries.
We took lunch at the L'Hotel les Ateliers de l'Image, something quite different and well worth trying for a special occasion.
