Provence is in the south of France. The entire region has an unusual charm due to its highly variable climate. Provence has a Mediterranean climate, but its terrain is undulating, with vast plains and steep peaks, so the weather is unpredictable. In summer, the sun is bright and warm, and in winter, the sky is full of wind, snow, and cold wind. There are castles, cities, canyons, oceans, and an endless sea of ​​flowers. It seems that all kinds of French customs can be reflected here, which is unforgettable. .

There are two famous cities in Provence: Aix and Marseille. We stayed in a B&B in Aix for the past two days. The landlord's eldest daughter Latisha is 20 and is studying "Cultural Exchange" in university. "Now we are at home for the holidays. The little girl volunteered to take us out for a walk the next day. This is really good news. It is best to have a guide in a place where we are unfamiliar. There are many valleys in Provence, the terrain is steep and the roads are not very wide. , plus the fact that French people generally drive very fast, we are really not used to driving by ourselves. The scenery on the road is so picturesque that we can only appreciate it by car.

The little girl is actually not too familiar with tourist attractions. We saw a simple lavender museum on the road and took us down to visit it. It is actually a small museum built by farmers themselves. It contains many early photos and tools, and there is also a small shop selling some. Specialty products from Provence. The owner’s Thai wife is very beautiful. She is fluent in English and French and can chat with guests. However, she is not very good at math. She has to use a calculator to add and subtract items that cost a few dollars. 20yuan-16 Yuan also needs to be typed out using a calculator.

I think all tourists come to Provence for lavender. There are lavender all over the mountains and plains. You don’t have to look for any scenic spots. You can encounter this sea of ​​purple flowers at any time while walking on the road.

This season is also the season when sunflowers are in full bloom, but on this day I wore yellow clothes, which matched the color of the sunflowers, so I thought I could pretend to be a sunflower.

Marseille is the third largest city in France after Paris and Lyon. The southeast of Marseille is adjacent to the Mediterranean Sea. It has deep waters and wide harbors, and no rapids. It is a port city that can dock 10,000-ton ships. We are not too far from Marseille, a 40-minute drive So I came over for a walk, but the weather was too hot. I was already sweating after just walking on the beach, so I quickly found an ice cream shop to take a rest.
