圣保罗-德旺斯

这是这次法国旅行第一个让我喜欢上的地方。小小的山城，很宁静的感觉。导游介绍时说这地方有点像台湾的九份，但其实只有一点点类似而已，九份可是热闹拥挤多了（哈）。这里的气候很舒爽，喜欢阳光洒下来时弥漫在小镇中的幸福感。噢对了，这里的冰淇淋还蛮好吃的喔。

很棒，很有气质的山城。我喜欢这边的艺术品，还有餐厅跟画作。我希望下一次还有机会可以再来。里面的　Le Caruso 很好吃，玛卡龙很棒。

Beautiful place with astonishing views. We spend about half a day visiting the place. We took a bus from Nice, it was an easy 1 hour bus ride, would definitely recommend!

Amazing romantic walled city. Absolute must see. Quaint little streets and lots of Galleries and citrus trees. Fantastic views.

St Paul de Vence was the favorite village of many artist.The most famous ones were Yves Montant and Simone Signoret whom got Married there , as well as BHL & Arielle Dombasle.You can visit the house Jacque Prevert used to rent .

As part of group tour of France, my wife and I visited Saint-Paul de Vence for a few hours. We very much enjoyed our walk through the narrow streets of this medieval village on the top of a hill – starting at the Porte de Vence, through the Place du Jeu de Boules, past many upscale shops and art studios, all the way to the outside edge of the cemetery at the other end of town. From the cemetery, we delighted in a fabulous panoramic view of the nearby countryside all the way to the Mediterranean Sea and were able to visit the grave of Marc Chagall. We loved Saint-Paul de Vence and hope to return someday.

This pretty and quaint little village was lovely to explore - you can do it in half a day. However, it is worth being aware that in the winter most cafes and restaurants close on Sunday and sometimes Monday too. While there are plenty of little clothes and art shops there are no food shops. We found just one shop which sold a limited range of bread as well as cheese and glacé fruits.

Great to see the way the villagers defended themselves. Brutal times when this place was built. You were on your own and you can see they were prepared.

One of the nicest "village perche" in the area. Lots of shop and restos. Take a walk through the cemetary and visit the grave of artist Chagall. Make sure you visit the Fragonard perfume shop. Prices are great and the items are beautifully made.

A lovely place, although nowadays it's hard to imagine Chagall beavering away here. Even though we visited in early February there was still a steady flow of tourists through the narrow twisty lanes. Lots of art, good and not quite so good (we did see a Chagall signed print but were too scared to ask the price) but sadly not a boulangerie or epicerie in sight. We wondered if anybody actually lived there. We did glance in the windows of the famous restaurant 'La Colomb d'or' and admired all the Picassos and works by other well-known artists gracing the walls. Go, before the season starts.

You cannot not like Saint Paul de Vence.But avoid the peak times.You will see so much art work all around the city and this is a place loved by artists and actors like Yves Montand or Picasso.

Previous reviewers are on the mark. This is a fun, ancient, hill town with narrow streets to wander in and interesting artisans around every corner. But that bus ride is tedious, with frequent stops and, reportedly, no guarantee that you'll be able to get on the bus home when summer crowds hit. Plus our driver was the first stereotypical "rude Frenchman" that we've met in nearly three weeks in Nice. Apparently one has to announce that you're going to this destination upon boarding the bus on the Promenade- in contrast to every other place we've gone by bus and even though the 1.5 euro fare is the same. We didn't know this and he berated us. Said he was "not telepathic" and even criticized my efforts to speak French ( five years of French classes, lived in Paris for a month last year, etc ). Every other person we've encountered here has been so kind if one even makes the effort to communicate in French that so this guy really stood out as a prize jerk and left a bad taste in our mouth for the whole excursion.

You can catch the number 400 bus from the beachfront in Nice , every 45 minutes , takes about an hour and costs 1euro 50 cents. This local bus drops you of at the road into the town , unlike many of the 'tours' who have to park up and drop some twenty minutes away.This hilltop village is a gem , every view and alleyway could be a set from French cinema . The colours are amazing and if you are lucky the light is startling. A favourite for many artists , alive and dead, there are many studios and lots to explore. Ex rolling stone Bill Wyman may have a house here , Mark Chagall is defineatly buried here.If you do travel by public bus service you pick up the bus by the Moulin Vieux restuarant , allow an extra 30 minutes and climb up the side of the restuarant , along side the old viaduct , the steps are punishing but the view back over St. Paul is well worth it.There are a number of places to get a bite to eat , you may also fancy a game of boule.Finally the village is not really suitable for buggies , wheelchairs or those shakey on their feet.I

Don't miss going to Saint Paul de Vence, one of the jewels of Provence! Get lost in the maze of narrow and picturesque alleys, the beautiful gardens and ancient fountains. No wonder Saint Paul de Vence is a favourite subject for photographers.

We drove up here one January morning, and although nothing opened until around 10 am, we delighted in walking along the outside of this medieval village, taking in the views and enjoying the narrow stone streets full of greenery and little passageways. We picked up jam and other goodies from one of the shops, which I highly recommend (I wish I had more jam)! A great experience, and not far from Antibes/Nice.
