FR - PROVENCE: Aiguines above Canyon du Verdon
Aiguines is perched on the side of a mountain at the western end of the Grand Canyon du Verdon (Gorges de Verdon), overlooking the northern end of the Lac de Sainte Croix. The village is located in a touristy, and beautiful region, and most people driving through are here for visiting the Gorges de Verdon. At the western end of the village, seen as you arrive from Moustier-Sainte-Marie or from the Lac de Sainte Croix, is a 17th-century Renaissance-style castle with a round tower at each corner, and colorful enamel-tiled roofs on the towers. The chateau was restored in 1913. Beside the chateau is the 17th-century Eglise paroissiale Saint-Jean, built in 1653, with a romanesque clock tower.
