View of Roussillon showing the red-ochre builings, Provence, France.


Roussillon is located about 10km northwest of Apt. This village is special because of the different colours of the buildings which were mined from the nearby quarries, which is a worthwhile visit on its own. Its also a good idea to look at this village from a distance.
