Description

Avant d'arriver à Bonnieux, quelle que soit votre route, c'est d'abord le sommet du clocher de l'église que vous apercevrez de très loin. Du haut de ses 425 mètres il domine les somptueux paysages des alentours et veille sur ce magnifique village perché du Luberon. Posé en paliers à flanc de falaise au dessus de la vallée, Bonnieux fait parti des plus beaux villages du Luberon. Ses maisons coiffées de terre cuite s'étalent sur la colline dans une belle harmonie de couleurs et de formes. Après avoir grimpé 86 marches de pierre de la Vieille Eglise, vous pourrez découvrir sous des cèdres centenaires, un panorama immense et vraiment superbe sur les Monts du Vaucluse, les villages de Gordes et de Roussillon. Telles des mosaïques impressionnistes, vous admirerez aussi les vastes plaines plantées de vignes, de lavandes, de céréales et d'arbres fruitiers. °°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°° No matter what route you take to Bonnieux, you will see the church tower well before you arrive. At a height of 425m, the tower dominates the countryside and the surroundings of this magnificent village, situated in the Luberon region. Built on a plateau above the valley, Bonnieux is one of the finest villages in the area. The houses spread out on the hill-side form a striking harmony of earth-toned colours and shapes. After having climbed 86 stone steps to the "Vieille Eglise" and the old cedar trees, you will discover a beautiful view of the Monts du Vaucluse, and the villages of Gordes and Roussillon. You can also admire the vast plains planted with grape vines (CÃ´tes du Luberon), lavander, cereals and fruit trees - just as the impressionists painted them! °°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°° Comments found on the Net Thanks for comments - Commentaires appréciés
