Mediterranean Microcosm
I need a vacation. Le Jardin botanique d'Èze, perched atop tiny Èze Village in Southeastern France would be nice right about now.
Taken from the Côte d'Azur vacation archives, summer 2010.
The garden was created after World War II on a chateau's ruins by town mayor André Gianton and Jean Gastaud of the Jardin Exotique de Monaco. It is sited on steep terrain falling over 400 meters (1,300 feet) to the sea with panoramic views of the coast, and known for its impressive collection of cactus and succulents from the Mediterranean region, Africa, and the Americas.
