Date of visit: May 6, 2012, around 11:00 a.m.
May 6, Pradelles was the first beautiful village. We arrived a little late in the morning, around 11am, because we had spent the previous night exploring the town of Le Buit.
It’s not so much when I look at the pictures again now, but if anything, it’s one of the “disappointing” villages in this tour of beautiful villages.
First of all, the location. Because it’s located right along the main highway….
“It’s on a road called the N88. The “N” stands for “National Highway”. It’s a big road. When we talk about a beautiful village, we usually follow the national road to get close to it, and then take the “D” road, which is a prefectural road (laughs).
The image of the village is that there are a lot of old buildings that look like they have a lot of charm, but to be honest, they are not maintained properly and are dusty.
The other thing that strikes me is that the building is kind of tall.
I don’t like the idea of tall buildings in a beautiful village. It should be a church and a tower…
So I was a little disappointed in the village, rather than the town. Still, the old French scenery is still there. I think it was worth visiting. And it was easy to get there from Le Buit.
Still, I felt it was very cold in spite of the beautiful weather. It was probably because the altitude was higher than I expected.
The weather is getting better, let’s hope for the next one.
