Provence

Provence has its own motto: “if you cannot hear the cicadas, the summer has not arrived yet!”. This sunny area of Southern France still has hints of its rich history, visible in cities like Avignon (the City of Popes) or its historic capital Aix-en-Provence. Provence also boasts beautiful coasts, sand beaches and France’s second largest city, Marseilles. Whether you’re an ancient ruins lover, or enjoy coastal city life, follow our pins to catch a glimpse of Provence.
