Living in the spring of Provence

Living in the spring of Provence The first stop in southern France was to stay in the most beautiful town, Saint Paul de Vence. This medieval town, hanging on the top of Provence, half an hour's drive from Nice, is like a piece of amber kissed by the sun, solidifying the romance of southern France, the breath of art and the whispers of the Mediterranean. Passing by the traces of Matisse, Chagall and Picasso's lives, galleries and handicraft workshops are still clustered in the alleys like a montage. The air is filled with the scent of turpentine and lavender. Here, "life" is no longer a verb. Rather, it is a watercolor smudged with the shadows of olive trees, flowers in pots, and faded stone walls. Close to Nice and Cannes, it is very convenient to drive to Nice or nearby cities. The small towns in southern France are not big and can be visited in two or three hours. Recommended to stay in La Miette, a 12th-century stone house in the center of town
