Over the years, on the many walks through small villages in Provence I took photos of street views. Some of the houses, windows and doors are beautifully decorated with flowers and plants, and I can never get past them without taking pictures.
Over the next couple of weeks, this is what I intend to share on Thursdays ....
I'm taking you to Crestet today, a very small medieval village not far from Vaison-La-Romaine.

Past the fig tree ...
Just look at this breathtaking scenery!
This is the valley of the Ouvèze.
This is the Church of St Sauveur, originally from the 11th century, and rebuilt in 1844.
Come back next week to see more photos of this beautiful village.

Oh my it looks so beautiful there, my ancestors came from Belgium so I have a real interest in it.
I would love to walk through those streets. Thank you for sharing. have a great day.
Oh I meant to tell you, your header picture is wonderful. I am drawn to those hands. They look like they have many stories to tell.
Wow, how beautiful! I would love to visit there and just soak up the beauty.
Beautiful and I found it interesting that, after being ransacked and falling into disrepair, the stones of the castle were used by Crestet residents to build their own houses.
I think I want to go and live in one of those little villages to savour the peace and quiet.
Gosh, the view, the stone work, the sky. I could certainly see myself linger there for a long time taking it all in!
Such a lovely place - very old too!!! Thanks for sharing them with us..
Absolutely gorgeous shots! love the fig tree.
