Aix-en-Provence is known as the city of light and sunshine, a far cry away from the overcast world of Paris. It is extremely popular in the art world, housing many art galleries and art classes (a treat while in Aix-en-Provence) and it is common to see artists sitting roadside capturing the beauty of this region.
Aix-en-Provence is also a very family-oriented destination as it has many activities and destinations that are aimed specifically at children, including the various zoos, game parks, theme parks, theatres, cinemas and sport parks. The must-visit parks and gardens of Aix- en-Provence include Parc Rambot, Parc de la Colline de Cucques and Parc Jourdan, all known for their expansive gardens, lawns and natural vegetation.
For those who come to enjoy the artwork of Aix-en-Provence, they will be thoroughly satisfied with the influence of Cézanne, who was born in this region. One can earn a great appreciation of his work when in Aix, as almost every museum carries a piece by this brilliant artist. For an artist’s dream vacation, head to Aix where art can be viewed, purchased, and of course, learned. |
