For a visit, leave the car in the nearby parking lot and explore the town with its medieval walls and buildings from the same period. The narrow streets provide shade and are refreshingly cool when the sun shines from the blue sky. The peace and serenity of the people who live here are a stark contrast to the racing program at the nearby, world-famous Paul Ricard Formula 1 circuit.
