Panoramic vista of the Provence’s rolling hillsides in spring, in Roussillon, France.

Any visit to Provence, France, should include the town of Roussillon. It is similar to all the other small towns — historical, quaint, and clustered around the top of a hill. But there is one big difference. Instead of being made from standard gray stone, like the others, Roussillon is made of red clay. It gives it an entirely different vibe. You forget that you are in Provence, almost feeling more like the Middle East in places. The beautiful walk to the top of the town also cannot be neglected. Once you get there, and survey the stunning panoramas, it feels like Provence again. Wildflowers, green fields, and gentle rolling hills in all directions.
