15 Real-Life Fairy Tale Villages Around The World
There is magic in life. Well, maybe not like the sort you see in Harry Potter movies (pity, I know), but a different kind. I’m talking about the kind we experience in our minds when we hear a beautiful piece of music or feel a special person next to us. Yet the daily struggles and routines usually take over and make us think about something else. Thankfully, there are still these magical, almost fairy tale-like places where we can get away from the busyness of every day and experience the magic firsthand.
Our friends at Bored Panda came up with a list of 15 of the most beautiful small towns and villages around the world, taken over by the mystical beauty of nature and our own man-made creations.

Got wisdom to pour?
There are more unknown places like those 15. For example the Masooleh Province and the Shekardasht Village in Iran.
These are so beautiful.
I think the first one (village of Provence) is called Saint-Guilhem-le-Désert
