21. Palais des Papes, Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur
For over half a century in the 1300s, Avignon was deemed the official center of Christianity. While civil wars were decimating medieval Italy, the famous Holy See reportedly took refuge in the papal properties of Provence. It took decades to erect the Palais des Papes, a stunning structure deemed worthy of the very highest priesthood. It is bigger than four normal cathedrals and includes apartments decorated with frescoes by famous Italian painter Matteo Giovanetti.
22. Calanques of Cassis, Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur
Residents are proud of their narrow attractive azure inlets into the alabaster rocks. They refer to them as simply calanques. Here you will discover paradisiacal beaches and steep, sturdy cliffs.
Be sure to visit En-Vau, Port-Miou, and Port-Pi. They go on for 20 kilometers. Experience wild, captivating nature, right on the outskirts of one of the country’s largest cities. There is no traffic as you can only get there by boat or on foot. Veteran visitors say this is the place where the “sun, bright stone and saltwater meet.” Stop and smell the roses, or in this case, the aniseed, rosemary, and thyme.
