Flassan, tiny village at the foot of Mont Ventoux
If you take a stroll along the narrow lanes between Bedoin and Villes-sur-Auzon, you'll first be charmed by the vast expanse of cherry trees that can be found there; in spring on a bicycle, it's an enchantment.
As you come around a bend in the road from Bedoin, you'll find yourself directly opposite Mont Ventoux, with a bird's-eye view of Flassan and the bell tower of Notre-Dame church, dating from the 14th century and the remains of a former priory.
You'll be charmed by the beautiful orange colour of the facades and the joints of the stone walls; a colour due to the many ochre deposits in the surrounding area.

La Place de la Mairie (Town Hall Square)
In the heart of the village, the central square is the ideal setting for a photo stop. This is where the town hall, which was once an olive oil mill, is located.
The village theatre, sometimes animated, sometimes deserted, with its fountain and its wash-house where women used to come to wash their clothes and the shade of its trees, the square will evoke a real cot setting.
Epicerie Jouvaud, the local shop
This small grocery shop was created in 1895, and passed down from generation to generation. It is the central shop of the village and you can find everything you need: general food, delicatessen, local products, bread, gas, envelopes...
You will also find a "self-service" bookshop where you can read and exchange books during your holidays.
