Description
Canal de l'Isle-sur-la-Sorgue's picturesque water canals give this Provençal town the nickname 'Venice of Provence'. The charming canals are decorated with 18th-century water wheels that once powered local mills, paper mills and textile mills.
The history of the canals dates back to the religious wars, when locals used them for defense, flooding the surrounding plains and making the village inaccessible to cannons.
Today it is a paradise for nature lovers, photographers and history enthusiasts. A walk along the canals amidst the blooming flora is an unforgettable experience that allows you to feel the unique atmosphere of the place.
