Best Things to Do in Aix-en-Provence
In Aix, you can stroll the Cours Mirabeau, browse through the markets and sip lattes and people watch in cafés. You can also head to a museum or two -- the Musée Granet hangs a few Cézannes; speaking of which, you can also visit his studio or climb one of his muses, Mont St-Victoire.
