Map of Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur
The Provence-Alpes-Cote d'Azur region is one of the most popular holiday regions of France. The region covers a large area from the charming Provence up to the Alps.
[edit] Regions
- Provence
- Lubéron
- French Riviera (Côte d'Azur)
- Mont Ventoux
- the Alps
The Provence Alpes Côte d'Azur region covers all the historic Provence area east of the River Rhone, together with the French Riviera, the eastern end of which used to be the County of Nice. The low lying parts of this region are generally dry and warm for most of the year, but the higher parts, stretching up into the Alps, are dry and quite cool. This southern part of the Alps is the sunniest part of the range. You can find more information about Provence, its culture and its heritage, and what to see, on the Gitelink guide to Provence.
