Situated near the Gorges du Cians, in the Roudoule valley, Touët is a unique medieval village: totally stuck to a vertical cliff, very tall houses, tightly packed together and just in balance remind one strangely of the architecture of Tibetan villages. Each house has a large attic open to the elements which in times gone by was used for drying figs. The narrow sloping streets, and stepped lanes are full of charm and character. www.provenceweb.fr/e/alpmarit/touetvar/touetvar.htm
