Provence: An Art of Living in the Heart of Vaucluse
Discover Provence
captivating and radiant
Welcome to Provence, a land of sunshine and contrasts, where landscapes awaken the senses and time seems to stand still.
Around Mazan, between Mont Ventoux, the Dentelles de Montmirail, and fields of lavender, nature and tradition come together to offer an authentic and unforgettable escape.
Endless vineyards, hilltop villages with flower-lined streets, colorful markets bursting with local flavors...
Provence enchants lovers of nature, culture, and gastronomy.
Experience Provence through Nature and Heritage
Explore typical villages like Mazan, Venasque, and Le Barroux, where history unfolds along cobblestone streets, ancient churches, and castles overlooking the plains.
Hike the trails of Mont Ventoux or cycle along winding roads between vineyards and orchards.
Listen to the cicadas, breathe in the scents of thyme and lavender, and let yourself be lulled by the golden light of sunsets over the Provençal hills.
For Those Who Savor and Discover
Savor local wines from the vineyards of the Ventoux AOC, enjoy the olive oil from Nyons, taste goat cheeses and sun-ripened fruits sold at the markets.
Don’t miss the famous Carpentras market, renowned throughout the region, or stroll through the flea markets of L'Isle-sur-la-Sorgue, a paradise for treasure hunters.
