Imagine
a feast for your eyes as the tapestries of Provence unfold before
you. Spend time in the town of Aix-en-Provence; explore the medieval
cathedral St-Sauveur and experience the lively streets of the
town's old square, as it transforms into a maze of fruit, produce,
clothing and antique vendors. Tempt your taste buds with Provencal
specialties flavored with the mouth-watering herbs for which the
region is so famous. Visit the wine region of Chateauneuf-du-Pape,
for tours and tastings. Gaze at lavender fields as far as the
eye can see. Visit an ancient Roman aqueduct some 2000 years old.
In Avignon, immerse yourself in the Papal Palace built in the
14th c., once home to seven popes.
