Pont Saint-Benezet

Provence is well known for its fresh ingredients, that are used both for savoury and sweet preparations. In this adorable boutique, you will try some of them, such as honey, jam or flavoured local biscuits. You will taste all these delicacies in a boutique near the Pont d'Avignon, a bridge that was built in XII Century and that still nowadays has preserved some parts of the original construction. A real throwback to the Middle Ages!
