| Finally, there are the people, the celebrations, and the rebelliousness of the south when one meets the people from Arles and the wild Camargue, when one participates in the festivals of Aix-en-Provence, or the Fiestas in Marseille.
There is no valid reason not to come here, there is something for all tastes, with easy accessibility by TGV (less than 3 hours from Paris), or plane or boat. More than 300 days of sun a year casts a magic light on the area all year round.

In South-East France, where the Rhône flows into the Mediterranean, it's the mouth of the Bouches-du-Rhône: where the Provencal way of life is associated to strong personality
!
The Bastide is situated in the “arrière pays Provencal”, at the foot of the Alpilles, in the pays d'Arles, well known for its small villages nestling in the middle of the olive groves. Nearby is the Pays d'Aix, dominated by the famous Sainte-Victoire, its vineyards, its typical mansions, the Garlaban, the backdrop of Pagnol's films. Then there is the area of Avignon, where the Middle-Ages Popes left their mark, and its unbeatable wine and festivals..
