At the heart of the Bouches-du-Rhône, the city of Aix-en-Provence has a particularly rich historical and cultural heritage. In its well-preserved city center, with many pedestrian areas, visitors can stroll amidst a large variety of shops, alleys and small squares. Visit the elegant monuments and incredible museums of Aix, admire the facades and townhouses and sit at one of the many cafés along the Cours Mirabeau listening to the soft gurgling of the fountains. Water is abundant here, as Aix owes its name to the thermal springs which have been tapped since Antiquity: in Latin, Aquae Sextiae, or the "waters of Sextius", the city's founder. But Aix-en-Provence is above all the ideal starting point from which to discover Provence and its treasures.
