• Cours Mirabeau
  "shopping galore"
  "My wife and her friends were gonzo. Everything their hearts desired. I found my way to the vegetable,olive, and cheese markets tout suite."
• Granet Museum (Musee Granet)
  "Free on Sundays!"
  "We were lucky to get this tip from the very impressive Aix visitors center. The museum was also changing exhibits around, but it was small enough that we could spend under an hour looking at about 12 Cezannes, a Rembrandt, myriad of busts and sculptures. Staff was pleasant- didn't speak much English..." but that's ok with us. The museum is on the street where Cezanne went to art school and failed! walk around the museum to enjoy some nice fountains and pretty buildings. " More >
• Atelier Cezanne
  "Visit to the "Mother Ship" for an artist"
  "As an artist and an admirer of the impressionists, a visit to Cezanne's studio was like going to the Mother Ship. The studio is one large room, with artifacts from Cezanne's life. Most interesting were some of the letters to and from othe impressionists (Monet, I believe). One letter by Cezanne desc..."ribes why he left Paris and what life in Aix was like. Fascinating to an art history buff! Other reviewers have commented on the price of admission but I felt it was a worthwhile and relatively small contribution towards keeping alive this small piece of the past. Looking at paintings by Cezanne since the studio visit, I recognized certain items or views from the studio windows and the paintings took on a whole new life. " More >
