Arles<\/h3>\n

It’s said that the three cities of Avignon, Arles and N\u00eemes form a golden triangle.\nMy favorite city is Arles.\nIt’s the gateway to the Camargue.\nThere’s so much to see that you can easily spend several days there.\nThe “ Mus\u00e9e Bleu<\/span> ” (Roman museum) is truly unique in France.\nHere again, it’s unquestionably for all ages.\nKids love it…
Also worth seeing in Arles are the Cath\u00e9drale Sainte-Trophime<\/span>, the Alyscamps<\/span>, the Ar\u00e8nes<\/span> and the Tour Luma, an artistic complex created by the LUMA foundation.\nThe building is the work of architect Franck Gehry. <\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”73121f80-a3ef-4484-8763-c3f18e3c56d2″ custom_padding=”8%||8%||true|false” custom_padding_tablet=”0%||0%||true|false” custom_padding_phone=”0%||0%||true|false” custom_padding_last_edited=”on|desktop” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_heading title=”45 minutes\/1 hour from Villeneuve” _builder_version=”4.26.1″ _module_preset=”c33f07d9-41e0-421a-8799-5799df695cce” title_font=”|Cormorant Garamond_weight|||||||” title_text_color=”#111111″ locked=”off”][\/et_pb_heading][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.26.1″ _module_preset=”0504de1e-f5ff-4281-ba60-cbbe4edf98bc” text_font=”Proza Libre|Proza Libre_weight|||||||” text_text_color=”#000000″ quote_font=”Cormorant Garamond|Cormorant Garamond_weight|||||||” header_font=”Cormorant Garamond|Cormorant Garamond_weight|||||||” header_2_font=”Cormorant Garamond|Cormorant Garamond_weight|||||||” header_3_font=”|700||on|||||” header_3_text_color=”#000000″ header_3_font_size=”15px” header_4_font=”Cormorant Garamond|Cormorant Garamond_weight|||||||” header_5_font=”Cormorant Garamond|Cormorant Garamond_weight|||||||” header_6_font=”Cormorant Garamond|Cormorant Garamond_weight|||||||” custom_margin=”||0px||false|false” global_colors_info=”{%22gcid-36fd78a7-34bc-404d-873c-dafa34efaae5%22:%91%22icon_color%22,%22icon_color%22,%22icon_color%22,%22icon_color%22,%22link_text_color%22%93}”]

Before leaving the village, it’s essential to visit the ” Carri\u00e8res de lumi\u00e8res<\/u> “, where reproductions of masters’ paintings are projected onto the walls.\nIt’s very impressive and open to the public.\nNear Les Baux, there’s the village of Saint-R\u00e9my-de-Provence<\/u>, the Roman village of Glanum<\/u>, the Alpilles<\/u>, Saint-Paul-de Mauzolle<\/u> (where Van Gogh was interned). <\/p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/leclosduviguier.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Carrieres_de_Lumieres_2.jpg” title_text=”Careers of light” _builder_version=”4.26.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.26.1″ _module_preset=”0504de1e-f5ff-4281-ba60-cbbe4edf98bc” text_font=”Proza Libre|Proza Libre_weight|||||||” text_text_color=”#000000″ quote_font=”Cormorant Garamond|Cormorant Garamond_weight|||||||” header_font=”Cormorant Garamond|Cormorant Garamond_weight|||||||” header_2_font=”Cormorant Garamond|Cormorant Garamond_weight|||||||” header_3_font=”Proza Libre|Cormorant Garamond_weight||on|||||” header_3_text_color=”#000000″ header_3_font_size=”15px” header_4_font=”Cormorant Garamond|Cormorant Garamond_weight|||||||” header_5_font=”Cormorant Garamond|Cormorant Garamond_weight|||||||” header_6_font=”Cormorant Garamond|Cormorant Garamond_weight|||||||” custom_margin=”145px||||false|false” global_colors_info=”{%22gcid-36fd78a7-34bc-404d-873c-dafa34efaae5%22:%91%22icon_color%22,%22icon_color%22,%22icon_color%22,%22icon_color%22,%22link_text_color%22%93}”]

The lavender route<\/h3>\n

Suggested itinerary: Sault – Ferrassi\u00e8res – Revest – Banon (very good goat’s cheese, by the way!) – Simiane la Rotonde – Saint-Christol.\nAllow around 1 hour for this tour … <\/p>\n

Plus the inevitable stops in the lavender fields!\nTo get back to Avignon, I’d suggest passing through the Gorges de la Nesque. <\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ _builder_version=”4.17.6″ _module_preset=”5138c454-be54-4233-bd3b-f8e6a8747976″ global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”73121f80-a3ef-4484-8763-c3f18e3c56d2″ global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_heading _builder_version=”4.26.1″ _module_preset=”ba4a6336-701f-47b8-bf5c-09da0ce28016″ title_level=”h2″ title_font=”Cormorant Garamond|Cormorant Garamond_weight|||||||” title_text_color=”#111111″ custom_margin=”24px||10px||false|false” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_heading][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.26.1″ _module_preset=”0504de1e-f5ff-4281-ba60-cbbe4edf98bc” text_font=”Proza Libre|Proza Libre_weight|||||||” text_text_color=”#000000″ quote_font=”Cormorant Garamond|Cormorant Garamond_weight|||||||” header_font=”Cormorant Garamond|Cormorant Garamond_weight|||||||” header_2_font=”Cormorant Garamond|Cormorant Garamond_weight|||||||” header_3_font=”Proza Libre|Cormorant Garamond_weight||on|||||” header_3_text_color=”#000000″ header_3_font_size=”15px” header_4_font=”Cormorant Garamond|Cormorant Garamond_weight|||||||” header_5_font=”Cormorant Garamond|Cormorant Garamond_weight|||||||” header_6_font=”Cormorant Garamond|Cormorant Garamond_weight|||||||” custom_margin=”||205px||false|false” global_colors_info=”{%22gcid-36fd78a7-34bc-404d-873c-dafa34efaae5%22:%91%22icon_color%22,%22icon_color%22,%22icon_color%22,%22icon_color%22,%22link_text_color%22%93}”]
