Travel Tips - People-watching in Vence / St Paul de Vence, France

Probably the best example of a medieval fortified provence village, St Paul de Vence offers stunning views, a range of artist galleries, restaurants, bars and expensive designer shops and rumour has it that both Michael Schumacher and Mick Jagger have once live here.

Wander around the cobbled streets, stop for lunch at the Colombe D'Or for lunch where works from Picasso, Miro and Braque hang on the walls or simply grab a coffee and watch the world go by (as well as the boules matches) from Cafe Della Place just outside the fortified walls.

St Paul de Vence is an essential sight and makes a great day out, however because of this it can get extremely busy at weekends.
