Highlights from Les Baux, Carrieres des Lumieres and Pont du Gard
/ Heather LindstromLes Baux-de-Provence is a medieval village high on a hilltop with stunning views of the valley below. Located in the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region of southern France the stone, sand, terracotta, flower boxes and sky blue shutters welcome. You feel transported back to a simpler time when wandering the winding, cobble stone streets.
Carrières de Lumières
Carved out of a former quarry this multimedia art show is a feast for the senses. Famous works of art come to life set to soaring musical pieces. This installation is a must-see for those who appreciate art and music come to life.
Next up, the Pont du Gard is located near Nîmes, Uzés and Avignon. This Unesco world heritage site is the most visited ancient monument in France and we climbed it with a private guide. It’s not for the faint of heart but we felt accomplished and honored to view this ancient and timeless landmark from the top.
