Southern France - Provence (4)
When we were buying a pass to the major sites in Nimes they asked if we would also like to visit a nearby castle – the Chateau Des Baux. Why not? We ventured out into Provence past the corn, wheat and sunflower farms to experience a medieval town leading up to the ruins of a once great castle that overlooks many of the farms. Van Gogh lived in a nearby town (Arles) and used the beautiful countryside as subjects for some of his most famous paintings. See the pictures.
