Balade les jeudis des villages - Sauzelle

Description

The salt village sometimes becomes a labyrinth; let's set off to discover these flower-filled gardens, these luminous walls that Pierre Loti compared to those of oriental villages, white walls brushed by the black silhouettes of slightly "witchy" village women...

From exotic bougainvilleas to tiny blossoms, from day and night beauties to hollyhocks, a whole host of dazzling flora has invaded the village's gardens and paths, where you'll come across a familiar inhabitant, a cat perched in an old tree with twisting branches.

The palm trees rise straight and tall against the sky, planted according to tradition in memory of a young gabier who had sailed far away and perished too often at sea...

Sauzelle, village of the voyage, village of those who stay and remember.
