SAINT PAUL DE VENCE, FRANCE: Exploring one of the oldest medieval villages in the South of France, the amazing hilltop commune of Saint Paul de Vence on the beautiful French Riviera.

I caught a local bus from Nice to Saint Paul De Vence in the South of France to explore a tiny little village perched on a hilltop overlooking luxury villas and Châteaus on the French Riviera. It really is a different world up there!
Walking through the narrow stone streets of Saint Paul de Vence was an enjoyable experience and although the commune is visited by millions of tourists every year it hasn’t lost its appeal or charm. Once through the defensive wall I got lost in the maze-like alleys and passageways, and although it’s great to be lost in such a fabulous place it isn’t long before you stumble upon one of the busier streets again – back to civilisation perhaps!
I walked the main street Rue Grande, climbed up onto the ramparts to admire sweeping views across the Côte d’Azur, photographed the Fontaine de Saint-Paul-de-Vence, visited the tomb of local painter Marc Chagall, browsed paintings and artwork in a trendy shopping street and toured the village church which is the tallest building in the commune. For such a small place there really is so much to see – and it’s a pleasure to see it!
I should also say that because Saint Paul de Vence was built on a hilltop there are magnificent views across the rolling fields and nearby mountains – both from a few places inside the commune and the ramparts that surround it. There’s nothing better than to be walking along a narrow street and then suddenly get a glimpse of those views when you least expect it – watch the video to see what I mean!
