Apt
This small Provençal town on the Calavon river in the Luberon mountains of Vaucluse, Apt has a café and restaurant scene that would suit a town twice its size, set within some of southeastern France's most productive wine country. The town also lends its name to the Aptian age of the Early Cretaceous period, a geological distinction that gives it an unusual place in scientific history.
