Aix-en-Provence is a pearl of towns in Southern France. Its cerulean skies, mossy fountains singing an intonation, crooked buildings bowing together under their age, its shutters - their classic pewter against golden walls, make for an all-senses feast. Aix’s size makes it special. The old town is pedestrian-only and one can traverse it from end to end with ease, or spend hours getting lost in its narrow passages and arteries. If you are coming to Aix by car, best to park it in one of the garages on the periphery of town (Parking Rotonde, for instance) and spend the day on foot. 9:00amBreakfast at Maison Weibel2 Rue Chabrier, 13100 Aix-en-Provencehttp://www.maisonweibel.com/ Enjoy breakfast at Maison Weibel, where you can sit and watch the bustle of the morning market of Aix from the rattan bistro chairs, while drinking a café and indulging in some of Aix’s finest patisseries. The lineup of patisseries at Maison Weibel look like brightly-colored artwork. Taste the charlotte aux fruits rouges, a tartelette aux fruits or just a classic pain au chocolat. Divinity. 10:30amAu Marché / To the ShopsPlace Richelme The market square facing your breakfast location, Place Richelme, is one of Aix’s daily markets. To me, it is the most visually charming. It is chock full of sundrunk fruits and vegetables, some still bearing evidence of where they were grown. After soaking in this charming square’s offerings, spend some time meandering through the streets of town drifting in and out of the shops. Shop: Rose & Marius3 Rue Thiers, 13100 Aix-en-Provencehttps://www.roseetmarius.com/en/ Rose & Marius is a luxury aroma brand born from Provence. The South of France is the source of inspiration for everything they produce.

Shop: L’Oiseau Bleu20 Rue Granet, 13100 Aix-en-Provencehttp://loiseaubleu-aix.fr/oiseaubleu/ The collection at L’Oiseau Bleu is a bohemian mix, a playful whirlwind of curiosities. The shop windows exhibit human-sized birds and rabbits donning lacy attire and leather belts, accented by à-la-mode jewelry pieces. A compelling and well-chosen thrift collection. Shop: Aux Pâtes Fraîches12 Rue Laurent Fauchier, 13100 Aix-en-Provence Pop into this small épicerie (caterer/small grocery stand) to get a feel for how locals do their daily shopping. Full of freshly made pasta, tapenades and lovely cut flowers - each item a treat. Shop: Mes Demoiselles12 Rue Marius Reynaud, 13100 Aix-en-Provencehttps://www.mesdemoisellesparis.com/en/cms/11/aix-en-provence A bit of chic and prêt-à-porter feminine fashion in the south of France. Luminous collection full of uniquely French charm and refinement, inspired by the local color palette and sensibility. Each selection a unique creation. Shop: Brocante & Antiquities62 Place Richelme, 13100 Aix-en-Provencehttps://antiquites.site-solocal.com/ Stop by a small and special antique shop in the heart of Aix.

Hôtel de Caumont3 Rue Joseph Cabassol, 13100 Aix-en-Provencehttps://www.caumont-centredart.com/en/home The Caumont Art Center is set in a meticulously restored 18th century private mansion.
