Provence - French Attractions

This article I would like to begin with the words of the famous French poet Romain Rolland: "France is romantic just because she has a Provence«.

I must say that Provence - an incredibly beautiful place, with a fresh and clean air, as well as an incredibly bright sky.




In addition, the Provence is famous worldwide thanks to its vast plantations of lavender. Last in the period July-August, locals and tourists pleased with its flowering. Visit to France at the time - true happiness, because only in this period, you can see the hills and valleys, which are covered with purple lavender. It looks fantastic, and as if some kind of magician all dressed in purple clothes. And what flavor here ... oh, it's charming!















The fact that the floral scent mixed with the fragrance of herbs and all that applies to kilometers skrashivaya already incredibly beautiful landscapes of France.

By the way, lavender is considered magical and even a sacred plant, and as in Provence it is incredibly much, and the province in a sense, magic, and it emphasizes the bright landscapes that seemed stamped in purple sea.

Provence is remembered for its amazing Mediterranean winds, which in windless calm day suddenly appear and just as suddenly calm down, everything again becomes peaceful and quiet ... fresh air, warm sun ... The impression is that incredible scene that had just been played by nature - or a fleeting dream some series of inner feelings and thoughts.

It is worth recalling that the Provence once was part of the Roman Empire, and its dimensions were significantly larger. The history of this province is as bright as the blooming lavender. France in the late 18th century was divided into five areas, one of them was the Provence who, incidentally, was also split into 22 districts.
