La Palmeraie, Mauritius


Dina Robin, El Cirné, Isle de France… three names for the same paradise. A paradise whose shores grew rich from the arrival of explorers who sailed from all over the world to be seduced by the beautiful landscape and the contrast of a multitude of colours and tastes.
Overview
