Aix en Provence

Facades, the color of sunshine. 

Four dauphins, do you know the meaning? 

Calissons: have you had one? Do you know the story behind them? 

When you were walking about remember to look up: religious statues are for watching you. 

A must see; Hotel Caumont—go there for lunch. 

Don’t bring clothes; (honestly) just go there on a Tuesday or Thursday. The market will fill your suitcase plenty. 

Whether religious or not, step into the churches- they are all over 1000 years old with beautiful art.

First Sunday of any month, the city’s major heritage museums open their doors to everyone for free

and so much more.

  1. My very best memories of France are of Aix.

  2. Oh Corey I love Aix. Thank you for the glimpse. Please show us the market dresses next summer mine have completely worn out.

    Yes indeed, stayed nearby, visited Cezanne’s studio and home and went to the market and then meandered along the Cours Mirabeau, while men sat together telling stories and people shopped…truly lovely memories…Jennie, NZ
