Provence|Visiting Southern France in June to See Lavender is the Real Deal

🇫🇷 This time, I went to Provence with friends, hoping to catch a glimpse of the lavender fields by chance! Yesterday! We were lucky enough to see vast stretches of lavender in Valensole, combined with the sunset glow—it was absolutely stunning! Renting a car is recommended. Here’s the guide ⬇️ . 🔍 Search for "Les Grandes Margès" on the map. When you get close, look for the sign in Figure 6. You’ll see a small shop on the hillside where you can park and use the restroom. . 🌟 There are lavender fields within a 10-minute walk in either direction (search: "Valensole Lavender field" for the exact location), or you can drive. If you see Figure 7, head straight to the lavender field behind the sign (a 5-10 minute walk from the parking spot near Figure 6). The slope makes for great photos, and if you climb further up, you’ll find an even larger lavender field. . 🌟 Best time for photos: During sunset (around 7 PM in June) when the light and golden hour make everything magical. ⚠️ There are lots of bees—avoid wearing strong perfume, or you might attract them. ❤️ Wear light-colored clothing; dark colors are less ideal. . 📷 Hope everyone gets amazing shots! .

The lavender fields of the south of France in early July. One of those places that absolutely exceeded my expectations. They might look nice on th photos, but they're so much more than that - the lavender scents, the mountain views, th sun flowers around... I truly recommend anyone to visit onc in their lifetime if they get the chance to!

Visiting Southern France during Summer is like teleporting into another magical world. Provence is one of the most colorful and picturesque places in the world. Especially during the months of July and August.
