Another Provence village built up from the rock base on top of a hill. We have visited here a few times over the last 10 or so years. The village is showing signs of an invasion of "wealth". Walls of stone have spread along most roads leading into Gordes, hiding the private estates. The new buildings fit well visually, but it's all a facade of engineered stone.
