Bormes-les-Mimosas is a picturesque commune in the Var department of the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region in southeastern France. Known for its stunning floral displays, particularly the vibrant yellow mimosa flowers that bloom in late winter, the village offers a quintessential Provençal experience. The old town, perched on a hillside, features narrow, winding streets lined with pastel-colored houses, covered in bougainvillea and other fragrant blooms.
The village's history dates back to medieval times, evident in its architecture, such as the 13th-century Saint-Trophyme Church and the ruins of the medieval castle offering panoramic views of the Mediterranean Sea and the Îles d'Or. Bormes-les-Mimosas is also known for its annual Mimosa Festival, which celebrates the flower with parades and cultural events. Its proximity to the French Riviera's beaches and the Massif des Maures mountain range makes it a perfect destination for both relaxation and outdoor activities.
