The hilltop villages of the Cote d`Azur are one of the most charming attractions to explore while in the South of France. These medieval villages perched high above the sea combine magnificent views of the jagged Riviera coast and mountains with charm and culture. Most villages were built between the 12th and 13th century providing vast history to be explored. The heart of each village boasts narrow winding cobbled streets perfectly suited for meandering about the villages offering charming boutiques, galleries and terrace cafes. As you wander these Provencal villages be sure to notice the medieval architecture, the lovely chapels, Roman ruins, beautiful natural landscape and cultural attractions in the most magnificent hilltop setting. The visual beauty of this region is an inspiration!
