Hopped on the rented 150 CC motorbike towards St Remy. Brushed past the Roman city of Glanum,toured the Mental Asylum where Van gogh was treated. The view of lavender fields and alps from Van gogh's room, are reflected in his paintings. Les Baux is perched on the rocky outcrop,has an extraordinary history. Bauxite was first discovered here and named after the village. Arles is 20 miles from Les baux.Van Gogh lived in Arles for about a year before volunteering to goto Saint remy's mental asylum. The Yellow painted house depicted in his drawings,was his residence in Arles. Photo expo was going on in Arles. After browsing thru some,we went to the arena. On our way back to Avignon,we made a quick stop at the sunflower fields,to take pictures. Provence is such a beautiful place on earth,it should not come as a surprise that this place inspired Van gogh.
