Aix-en-Provence Travel Guide: 331 reviews and 711 photos
Aix-en-Provence is a city of art that houses several art schools and several universities, including some American, attracting a young population that sparks the atmosphere (you pronounce the "x", so Aix sounds like aches, as in aches and pains). Aix is a small and lively city, ideally situated for exploring the Provence and the Camarque.
The picture above is showing the Cours Mirabeau, a beautiful tree-lined avenue that offers wonderful terrace cafés and bookshops. Large trees overhang the length of the avenue, providing day-long shade on hot summer days. Some of the more famous cafés are: Le Grillon, Les Deux Garçons, La Belle Epoque and Le Café du Cours.

You are a wonderful tour guide. Thank you for the beautiful suggestions. Everything about it looks warm and inviting.
Magnificent pictures and lovely stories, very enjoyable.
Great page Andreas with lovely pics. I was in Aix briefly a few summers ago and would love to return
Great warning and dangerous tip ;) Very lovely place!!!
Great page and beautiful pictures! Happy Birthday Andreas! :-))
There's more nightlife in Aix than most Provencal cities, for its size. this is due to the students.
beautiful! just like I've pictured it - I hope the weather is as nice when I'm there in January!
Superb photography all around your world-- thanks!
Yes. I miss Aix. Beautiful city.
