Aix-en-Provence, or Aix (pronounced "X"), is the capital of the region. It is absolutely a delightful town and well worth the trip. Spend at least a day here. You could visit
Cezanne's studio, or venture into the country to St-Victoire, the mountain of which Cezanne painted the most. Around town, there's lots to marvel over so take your time and enjoy Aix.
The Cathedrale Saint-Sauveur is worth the visit just for the cloister alone. Notice the detail of the columns. Each one is exquisitely carved and tells a story. Absolutely "magnifique!"
