Fayence
Fayence (French pronunciation: [fajɑ̃s]; Occitan: Faiença) is a commune in the Var department in the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region in Southeastern France. Fayence is one of a series of "perched villages" overlooking the plain between the southern Alps and the Esterel massif, which borders the Mediterranean Sea between Cannes and Saint-Raphaël. The village is located on the road to Mons, which later on joins the Route Napoléon linking Nice to Grenoble through the Alps. Some high-standing resorts have settled nearby the village in the recent years: the Domaine de Terre Blanche at Tourrettes and Domaine de Fayence attract a foreign clientele. The village contains a primary school (École de la Ferrage) and a junior high school (Collège Marie Mauron). The Aérodrome de Fayence-Tourettes is one of the most active in Europe for gliding; it hosts the Provence Côte d'Azur Aeronautical Association.
