📌 Location: Joucas, Provence, South of France

🇬🇧 Bonjour! Welcome to Joucas, a tranquil village in the heart of Provence and the Luberon.
Joucas is a serene village perched on a hill, offering stunning views of the ochre cliffs of Roussillon and the valley.
Far from the bustling tourist spots of the Luberon, it provides a tranquil retreat. The village’s charm is evident in its historic Rue Grande, the picturesque Place de la Fontaine, and its well-maintained boulodrome, reflecting the local tradition of pétanque.

The Joucas church, with its simple exterior, houses an interior that rivals an Italian art museum, complete with trompe l'oeil paintings and a gilded altar. The village’s past is marked by its Templar Commandery, highlighting its historical depth. A curious addition to Joucas’ landscape is its windmill on Route de Murs, built in the 1850s despite the era’s technological shifts.

This guided walk is a perfect way to uncover all the hidden gems and understand the allure of Joucas, ensuring that visitors leave with lasting memories of this enchanting French village.
