The South of France covers
a large and diverse area, from central France down to the coast,
covering the following Districts.
A few kilometers back from the shore is a less publicized side
of the Riviera --- a world of romantic hill towns and perched
villages balanced on craggy peaks. Worn stone stairs and cobbled
streets lead through clusters of narrow-fronted houses. Roman
ruins, modern museums and perfume centers cling to steep hillsides.
Here, olive groves and pine woods stretch for miles down to the
shore. Perfumed foothills are carpeted with flowers in the luminous
light that inspired generations of painters from Renoir to Matisse,
Picasso, and the Fauves. Now a gentle, subtle resort-life flowers
here in soft air and sun above the Mediterranean.
For many others, today's shoreline Riviera offers
all the grandeur of old: casinos, splendid hotels and stunning
villas. As long as anyone can remember, this was Europe's classic
resort. Graced by palms, sub-tropical flowers, the well-named
Azure Coast ranked for over a century as the preferred playground
for those willing to settle for nothing less than first class.
With the sheltering Alps as backdrop and the calm
blue Mediterranean at the door-step, France's glamorous southern
coast was the rendez-vous for an affluent elite who came to enjoy
the good life, now available to us all.
