Le Luberon
The chestnut-covered hills of the Luberon were made famous by Peter Mayle 20 years ago in his book ’A Year in Provence’. There can be few areas of the world where history and scenery blend so well. Typical features of deepest Provence dot the landscape - ancient bories, like igloos made of stone, windmills, vineyards, lines of plane trees and ruined citadels.
