🇫🇷 Lourmarin, the Most Beautiful Town in South of France
🌸 Lourmarin is a charming Provencal town where the famous French writer Albert Camus, author of "The Myth of Sisyphus," spent the last years of his life. It is also one of the most beautiful towns in the South of France. Surrounded by picturesque villages, lavender fields, and vineyards, this town features medieval castles and Gothic churches. Every step here is a scenic view. Strolling along the ancient cobblestone streets, you can feel the romance, laziness, and comfort of life. When tired, sit at a street corner, enjoy a cup of coffee☕️, and watch the people passing by. Far from the hustle and bustle of the city, you can experience a sense of tranquility～ · ⌚️ Recommended Visit Time: Half a day 🚴 Transportation: It is recommended to rent a car. The nearest airport to Lourmarin is Avignon Airport. After landing, you can rent a car or drive there. The drive takes about 1-1.5 hours (there are both paid and free parking lots near the town). · ⭐️ Must-See Spots: 1⃣️ Castle: This ancient castle, located in the center of the village, is one of the iconic buildings. It was built in the 15th century. 2⃣️ Church: This 16th-century church features a blend of Gothic and Romanesque architectural styles, with very exquisite interior decorations. 3⃣️ Every Friday morning, there is a market in town where you can buy handicrafts, agricultural products, and local specialties. You can see locals wearing straw hats and carrying wicker baskets. Shopping at the market is very French in style. 🧺 4⃣️ In 1958, Camus bought a detached house here. You can find his residence at No. 23, a narrow alley named after him, next to the Nonni pizzeria. 5⃣️ June to July is the season when lavender blooms. Remember to visit the nearby lavender fields. Unfortunately, I came in early summer this time and didn't see large lavender fields, but the roadside scenery was already very beautiful. 6⃣️ Lacoste is a must-visit town near Lourmarin, about a 30-minute drive away. It is also a town worth visiting. · #HiddenTravelSpot #SouthFranceVacation #TravelVlog #RomanticLife #France #Market #Gordes #SouthFrance #Town #Travel #FrenchTravel #GordesStoneTown #Joucas #SouthFranceTrip #FrenchTown #SouthFranceCharm #StoneTown #RedEarthTown #MostBeautifulTownsInFrance #Lourmarin
