The Luberon valley in Provence is a land of hilltop villages — villages perchés is what they're called in French. One of the most beautiful and most touristy is Gordes, just 20 minutes from Cavaillon (where our gîte was) and less than an hour by car from the city of Avignon.
I didn't take all these photos in Gordes. Some were things I saw and photographed in other villages the last time I was in Provence (September 2001). My first stay in Provence dates back to the winter and spring of 1970, when I was a student in Aix-en-Provence for six months. I wish I could go back in time and see what the Luberon was like back then.
Gordes is stunning and looks like a place I'd love to visit. The only hilltop town I've been to is Saint Paul de Vence, but that was a while back. We stuck our heads in Colombe d'Or, but our wallets prevailed and said "non."
ReplyDeleteIf we were able to travel back to 1970, we'd be young again and that would be a nice experience as well. We didn't know how our lives would turn out and that we know now. Thanks for these nice photos of Gordes.
ReplyDeleteLovely villages, great photos, thank you.
ReplyDeleteNice photos, Ken! Did your visit to the dentist go okay?
