Village in the Alpes-de-Haute-Provence with an unusual density of cafés and restaurants for its size, Moustiers-Sainte-Marie sits against a rocky escarpment on the edge of the Verdon regional natural park. It holds membership in Les Plus Beaux Villages de France and the Villes et Métiers d'Art association, and a star suspended on a chain between the cliffs above the village is one of its most photographed features.
