2025 Aix-en-Provence Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in July)

Travel Dlux tells the story of a trip to Provence, France. We chose to come to this region in France because we had heard rumors for a long time that the nature here is beautiful. And it really is beautiful. The houses are unique, just like we've seen in books. We met lovely people who just dragged their luggage to their accommodation. The summer here is great because we don't have to adjust our body temperature. The advantage is that it gets light in the morning very quickly. At 9pm, people are still walking leisurely. #TravelFrance #100TravelTips #dluxyourday #traveldlux

Every year from the end of June to mid-July is the season when lavender blooms in Provence, southern France. The sun is too strong but the wind is very cool. The air is filled with the fragrance of lavender. The lavender fields seen in Valensole have no end and are so beautiful that they seem unreal! We ran excitedly in the fields, immersed in the romantic purple sea, recording each other's happiest appearance💜 #France #SouthFrance #Provence #Valensole #LavenderSeason #LavenderFields

A great mountain town. I took so many photos with my phone along the way. I was afraid I would miss every corner. There are many artists here. There are small shops and various works of art. It is worth a visit!

Getting There - the starting point of Le Crémade Nord (not to be confused with the bus station 50 minutes away!) is only a 20 minute drive from Aix-en-Provence city center! 🚗 I would recommend renting a car when visiting Provence to make the most of the area. We parked by a nearby restaurant (please see last picture!). Attractions - this may be a less well known hike, but very good for a quick getaway from the city center into the wilderness. The view of Montaigne Ste Victoire ⛰ was stunning, although Lac Zola 💧 itself was a bit underwhelming. Those who enjoy mountain views (like me) will love it, those who enjoy the water, not so much. Other Details - good for beginner hikers 🐾 as the whole journey only took around 2 hours there and back. Perhaps start the hike at 14:00 to miss the heat at its peak! ☀️ #aixenprovence #france #hike #europe

🇫🇷 A small and lovely southern French town, ‘Aix-en-Provence’ Aix-en-Provence, famous as the town of the impressionist painter Cezanne, is a great place to visit on a day trip from Marseille! I happened to visit while staying in Marseille, and it was a place that hit my taste as I like small cities💕 There was a market open at the time, so I looked around and bought some fruit. The atmosphere of the town itself was leisurely and peaceful, so my mind was at ease😊 If you are traveling to southern France, visit it once✨ 📍Location Aix-en-Provence, France #France travel #Southern France #Aix-en-Provence #Day trip #Nostalgic trip #Travel sickness #Europe travel #European backpacking trip #Life travel destination

#AbsolutelyFreeTrip Aix-en-Provence is a university city in the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region of southern France. It is also famous as the birthplace of the post-impressionist painter Paul Cézanne. It takes about 20 minutes by TGV from Avignon to Aix-en-Provence. It is a really quiet and nice city to relax in. Aix is ​​the "city of water." Anyway, there are various fountains, big and small, in various places, so you can't miss them. The Cours Mirabeau is said to be one of the "most beautiful streets in the world." It is a boulevard that continues in a straight line for about 400m from Place de Gaulle to Place Forbin. It is a very pleasant street to walk on, with plane trees lined on both sides. Place Général de Gaulle is the entrance to the Cours Mirabeau, and in the center is the large "Font de la Rotonde." This fountain was built in 1680, and the three statues at the top represent justice, agriculture, and art, respectively. Saint-Sauveur Cathedral Established in the 5th century, it was expanded and remodeled until the 17th century, so you can see a variety of architectural styles. The main attractions include the 12th century Romanesque cloister, the baptistery from the Merovingian dynasty (5th to 8th centuries), and the triptych "Burning Thorns" by Nicolas Froment, one of the most representative Provencal paintings of the 15th century. The door to the cloister facing the cathedral opens once an hour, and a guided tour is available. City Hall The bell tower of this city hall, which was built around the 17th century, is a mechanical clock, and when it strikes the hour, a doll comes out. #France Trip

Had a wonderful trip to Bangkok. Unforgettable sunset dinner, local street food, and many more. Will definitely return for more. I love Bangkok ❤️ #travel #bangkok #localfood

It’s Saturday today, and I happened to come across a post about a weekend market — so off I went! In the city center, there wasn’t just a flower market, but also stalls selling fruit, vegetable baskets, fruit platters, and more. The atmosphere was so full of life. The flowers in the first photo are just too cute — how is there even a Provence-exclusive version of “artichoke” (it really looks like one, but it’s so adorable)? There were “Cézanne-style” tomatoes and produce everywhere. The market was bustling with people buying groceries — dressed in colorful clothes, standing under the sun, holding a basket filled with fresh carrots, eggplants, strawberries, cherries... I loved it so much! And the hydrangeas were in full bloom — absolutely stunning! 📍 Aix-en-Provence city center — search for *Boucherie des Prêcheurs* and you'll find yourself right in front of a whole fruit and vegetable market ⌚️ Saturday morning (we arrived between 9:30–10:30, and everything was already open) #summervacay

Nestled among the sun-drenched, lavender-filled landscapes of Provence lies a charming yet understated dessert shop—Madeleines de Christophe depuis 2006. Specializing in madeleine cakes, this delightful patisserie was founded in 2006 by Christophe, a pastry chef passionate about traditional French confections. For travelers with a sweet tooth, this is the perfect starting point to explore the flavors of southern France. Madeleines are small shell-shaped cakes originating from the Lorraine region of France, celebrated for their moist texture and rich buttery aroma. They were famously immortalized in literature by Proust in "In Search of Lost Time." Christophe’s madeleines not only retain the warmth of traditional craftsmanship but also incorporate the local essence of Provence, making them a sweet cultural symbol of the region. Located in a quaint and peaceful village in Provence, the shop boasts a simple yet elegant exterior, always wafting with the subtle scents of butter and honey. Step through the wooden door, and you’ll be greeted by a mesmerizing display of golden treats—madeleines that resemble tiny shells of sunshine, delicate and enticing. The interior is warm and unpretentious, evoking the cozy charm of a grandmother’s kitchen in southern France. 🍋 The flavor selection is impressively diverse, including: * Lemon (Citron): Refreshingly tangy, a summer favorite * Almond * Orange * Chocolate & Hazelnut (Chocolat & Noisette): Rich chocolate enveloping crunchy hazelnuts, offering a layered taste experience. Each madeleine is baked fresh and sold on the spot, with a slightly crisp exterior and a moist, tender interior. A single bite reveals a harmonious blend of egg and fruit flavors. Pair it with a cup of jasmine green tea or hand-brewed coffee for the ultimate afternoon tea experience. Gift boxes of 20 are available, making them a perfect sweet souvenir from Provence. (Highly recommended to buy 20 because you won’t get enough!) Though the shop is small, its reputation and quality have attracted dessert lovers from around the globe. Many make a special trip just to savor the pure joy and happiness encapsulated in these little madeleines. If you visit Provence, beyond admiring the lavender fields and stone villages, treat your taste buds to a gentle journey. Madeleines de Christophe offers a sweet memory of southern France and a taste of refined French living. 🍯🌼🫖✨ ⏰ Opening Hours: Tuesday to Saturday: 08:00-19:00 📅 Closed: Sunday and Monday 🌟 Recommended Flavors: Original, Hazelnut, Lemon, Almond 💰 Prices: 6 pieces/€3.7 13 pieces/€7.4 20 pieces/€11.4 📍 Address: 4 Rue Gaston de Saporta, 13100 Aix-en-Provence, France

Some of my captured moments in and around Bangkok as a solo lady traveller - felt safe and was very easy to venture around these attractions and highly recommend their coconut ice cream

Aix-en-Provence is one of the most elegant and charming cities in the Provence region of southern France. The greater Provence area is vast, encompassing cities like Avignon, Aix, Arles, and Marseille. This region is renowned for its sunshine, cuisine, lavender fields, historic towns, and Mediterranean charm. The lavender season typically peaks from late June to mid-July, with the fields near Valensole and the Abbaye de Senanque being the most famous. Even during the off-season, the old town is worth exploring, although many shops may be closed. Aix is also known as the "City of Water" due to its numerous fountains. Its unique architecture makes it a fantastic place for photography.

Bright lights, endless flavors, and the warmest smiles — Bangkok, I’m in love.🥰

Today, we had lunch at an 18th-century mansion in Aix-en-Provence called Caumont Centre d'Art. This stunning architectural gem has been transformed into a venue for art exhibitions, events, and performances. On the ground floor, there's a restaurant with both indoor and open-air seating in the garden area. Spring weather is perfect, so we chose to sit in the garden surrounded by fountains and lush green lawns. The vibe was absolutely delightful. The menu offers a variety of salads, and we opted for the salmon and seafood salad with fresh, crispy vegetables. For those who enjoy quiche, they serve freshly baked ones straight from the oven, aromatic and delicious. We ended the meal with desserts like tarts, waffles, chocolate cake, or ice cream, paired with a cup of coffee. It truly made my day!

#GetDiscountsWithoutLuck Take a bus out of Aix-en-Provence in southern France for about 20 minutes and you will find a very cool contemporary museum called Fondation Vasarély, which presents the work of Hungarian-French artist Victor Vasarély, who is very famous for his optical art. This place is cool from the building itself. You can see it from a distance and you will know what the work inside will be like. The fun of looking at this kind of work is that it plays with our eyes and brain's perception. It seems to play with both emotions and thoughts. It is a perfect blend of science and art, whether it is the colors used, which are bright and vivid, or black and white, or the geometric shapes that create dimensions and illusions, making us think about how many points in front of us are together. And the distance from which we stand to look at the image also affects the different interpretations. The exhibition room is divided into several rooms. How to walk without getting confused? You have to look at the room numbers because after walking for a while, you will start to get dizzy, like you are walking into a game or a large graphic work.

#SouthFrance #Provence #March I was deeply attracted by the introduction of the manor when I saw it in a magazine. I was even more astounded when I had the opportunity to visit it on this trip. It gives you a five-star experience everywhere. From the moment you make your reservation, the winery will send you a letter to inquire about your needs and arrange a wine tasting experience. After arriving, we found that the manor was really huge. It is a paradise for art lovers and wine lovers. It is suitable to arrange a full day for this beautiful and amazing manor. The maze garden that surprised people in the magazine at that time really looked like in the photo. You can see LV's collection everywhere you walk. In addition, there are many restaurants to choose from in the manor. The bread in the restaurant is made in the manor and is very delicious. The room provides a variety of welcome snacks, and the beds and amenities are of high quality! The soft bathrobe, quilt and comfortable fluffy bed will give you a good night's sleep! Finally, this place is very close to the city of Provence, only 10 minutes away, so it is very convenient to go out shopping and eat!

Small town in Provence: Bonnieux||Bonnieux is a charming town in the Provence region of France, located in the heart of the Vaucluse Mountains. It is one of the famous "Most Beautiful Villages of France." Bonnieux is known for its ancient buildings perched on the hillside, winding alleys, and breathtaking panoramic views. Overlooking the Provençal countryside and distant vineyards, it is a typical southern French town, exuding a rich historical atmosphere and Mediterranean charm. Peter Mayle has a close connection with the town of Bonnieux in Provence, as it was here that he and his wife settled, and the town became one of the backdrops for his life and writing in Provence. In the late 1980s, Peter Mayle and his wife decided to leave England and move to Bonnieux in Provence, where they bought an old house and began their "southern French life." Mayle wrote about his experiences living in Provence and his interactions with the local residents and culture in his book *A Year in Provence* (1990). Although the book describes the first year he and his wife spent in Provence, the town of Bonnieux and Mayle's living experience are actually at the heart of this book and his subsequent works. The tranquility and beauty of Bonnieux became a source of inspiration for Mayle's writing. His descriptions are very detailed, and many of the scenes and characters in the book are based on his real life and encounters in and around Bonnieux. The success of the book not only made Mayle a well-known writer, but also brought the charming Provençal town of Bonnieux to the attention of more tourists. Therefore, Peter Mayle's relationship with Bonnieux is not limited to his personal residence, but also because his works have made the town famous worldwide, making it a major highlight of Provence tourism.

#NewYearNewTrip Recommended lavender fields Gordes and Abbaye Notre-Dame de Sénanque In addition to the two major lavender fields in Provence, Valensole also has Gordes and a beautiful church nearby, Abbaye Notre-Dame de Sénanque. Travel 🚍 It is recommended to rent a car because Gordes, the most beautiful village in France, has a bus, but there is only one bus per day and you have to change buses in Cavallion, which is not convenient at all. If you go this way, you will only be able to visit Gordes, but it is much more difficult to plan, so it is recommended to rent a car to travel, which is much more convenient. #lavender #provence #france #francetrip #europe #europetrip
