Provence

Beautiful and Romantic Landscape

Postcard of Provence
I've always dreamed of visiting Provence because I have a romantic imagination about this area of France.

While on a road trip in France, we drove through Provence and I saw lots and lots of red poppy flowers amongst fields of yellow rape-seed and golden wheat (well, it was some kind of grains) crops. The sight was breath-taking (for a first-timer to French countryside) - the amazing fields and fields of crops, poppy flowers and other wild flowers. It was one of the most beautiful sights I've seen in my life.

It was a pity then (in year 2002) that I didn't have a digital camera or a video camera. I would have captured these images.

Pros:"Great food, friendly people and not expensive to stay"
Cons:"Language barrier (naturally, everyone speaks french)"
In A Nutshell:"I'll return to Provence (as soon as I can speak a bit French)"
