Aix, a graceful, lively city, is known for its thermal hot springs, art schools and universities. Wander the Cours, old town and Quartier Mazarin on foot, stopping at cafés, bookstores and markets. Kids whining? Have them count fountains… Aix reportedly has 1,000 of them.

Wonderful historic cathedral - great visit to a beautiful old church. We loved our walk to the cathedral enjoying the market in Aix, viewing the sidewalk cafes, and then our visit to St. Sauveur. Recommend stopping at a sidewalk cafe and enjoying a nice Rose from Provence, sampling sausages and cheese in the market, and enjoying a strill along the pedestrian friendly streets and alleys. One of our favorite stops on our cruise.

The Corn Exchange is a classical building from the 18th century that shows the importance of the corn trade at at that time. The southern entrance overlooking Place Richelme is decorated with figures of fruits, cereals, and olives representing the function of the building. Today this is the home of the local Post Office.

Vieil Aix is a fascinating place. The "Old Aix" is a beautiful area. We walked around the streets observing, looking, enjoying everything there was on offer. There are wide and some narrow streets, shops, cafes, restaurants, patisseries, bread shops, and other types of shops, fountains, sculptures and more. And the architecture of the buildings is also worth the trip.

My wife and I shopped at the Farmers Market in Aix-en-Provence on a Saturday morning during our two day stay in Aix. It is a great farmers market. It is one of my favorite markers in Europe. There is a good variety of fruits and vegetables as well as cheeses and breads. We bought some bread and cheese and I bought some duck confit. We went back to our Airbnb apartment and had a picnic on the rooftop terrace. It was one of the most memorable experiences of out trip to southern France.

This is a beautiful street lined with old Charming buildings in typical south of France style. Along its edges are restaurants and bistrots with terraces which are quintessential to the Provence.

it's worth the walk uphill , it completes the visit to Paul Cézanne's atelier. Copies of his paintings on the mountain St Victoire are placed in the park facing the real mountain. Access by bus too.
