Aix en Provence, Cultural capital of Provence
|
City
of water springs, city of Art, Aix en
Provence marvelously exemplifies the
Provençal
art of living so admired by the rest
of the world.
|
The
boulevards shaded by majestic sycamores,
the streets bordered by rich private
residences, the discreet squares ornamented
with beautiful fountains and garnished
with welcoming sidewalk coffee,
Aix inevitably seduces those who take
the time to linger.
|
Cultural
capital, Aix en Provence welcomes many
artists. Cezanne made it his city, and
the surrounding countryside inspired
some of his greatest impressionist masterpieces.
