Provence | Brilliant place for lavender pictures

🇫🇷 This time I went to Provence with some friends, hoping to catch the lavender in bloom—and we got lucky! Just yesterday, we saw vast fields of lavender in Valensole. With the sunset, it was absolutely stunning! I recommend driving there. Here’s a quick guide ⬇️ 🔍 On the map, search for **Les Grandes Margès**. When you get nearby, there’s a small shop on the hillside where you can park and use the restroom. 🌟 Within a 10-minute walk in either direction, there are lavender fields (search for **Valensole Lavender field** to get a general location). You can also drive. The sloped terrain makes it easy to get beautiful photos. If you walk further uphill, you’ll see even larger fields of lavender. 🌟 **Best time to shoot**: Around sunset. In June, that’s around **7pm**—the golden light and sunset make for amazing shots. ⚠️ There are lots of bees, so avoid using perfume, or you might attract them. ❤️ Outfit tip: wear light colors and avoid dark tones. #postandearn #france #lavender

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.
