Aix en Provence Maps and Orientation

(Aix en Provence, Provence-Alpes-Cote d'Azur, France)

Located on the far south-eastern side of France and close to the Mediterranean coastline, Aix en Provence is an attractive city. Famed for its plentiful sunshine and proximity to Marseille, Aix en Provence is also within easy reach of Monaco and within driving distance of northern Italy.

Within the city proper, the Cours Mirabeau stretches between both the Place Forbin and the Place du Général de Gaulle, which is a large roundabout with a dramatic and historic fountain centrepiece, often known simply as La Rotonde. Situated on the northern side of the Cours Mirabeau is the Old Town area of Aix en Provence, Vieil Aix.
