(Below) One of the many fascinating and beautiful aspects of St. Martin de Vésubie is that a river runs through it. This is one of two such towns in all of France that have engineered such a project. After a fire practically destroyed the village at the turn of the 20th century, the residents vowed to always have water easily accessible.
