Vaisons La Romaine

Canon 7D, 10-22mm Lens

Amazing French village I visited in October 2010.  Walked through the old walled village up to a ruined and abandoned Chateau on the hill.The medieval town is high on the rocky cliff. The valley floor was safe from attack in Roman and modern times. In the Middle Ages attacks were frequent, and the town retreated up-hill to a more defensible position.  Very pretty and a must see if you ever get to this area.
