Stroll among the dry-stone huts of the Village des Bories. Sheepfolds, bread ovens, wine vats and enclosures help you imagine how this former rural settlement was organised. Look at the vaults built without mortar and the walls made from local stone. The restored site showcases architecture typical of the landscapes of Gordes and Provence.
