🇬🇧 Bonjour! Welcome to our latest video, where we take you on a tour of Eygalières, a perched village in the Bouches-du-Rhône département.
Nestled in the heart of Provence, Eygalières is a picturesque village that epitomises the quintessential charm of the French countryside. With its origins stretching back into the mists of time, this quaint village is perched elegantly amidst the breathtaking backdrop of the Alpilles mountains, offering stunning panoramic views that captivate the heart and soul.
As you wander through the cobblestone streets of Eygalières, you're greeted by the remnants of a bygone era, from the ruins of the old feudal castle that once vigilantly guarded the village to the ancient clock tower that stands as a testament to the village's rich history. The tower, built from the castle's ruins, overlooks the village and offers an unparalleled vista of the surrounding plains and the majestic Mont Ventoux.
A stroll through Eygalières reveals a tapestry of historical and architectural marvels. The village is home to the iconic Chapel of Saint-Sixte, an emblem of Provençal Romanesque art, set against a landscape so quintessentially Provence that it seems to leap straight out of a painting. This ancient chapel, surrounded by solemn cypress trees, has watched over the village surroundings since the 12th century, offering a serene spot for reflection and admiration.
Eygalières is not just a village; it's a living, breathing celebration of Provençal culture and history. From its historic buildings and charming streets to the friendly faces that greet you at every turn, Eygalières invites you to immerse yourself in the timeless beauty of Provence. Whether you're exploring its historic sites, enjoying the local cuisine, or simply basking in the beauty of its landscapes, Eygalières is a place that captures the essence of the Provence, promising memories that will last a lifetime.
