Experts' Choice Award Cours Mirabeau
What the experts agree on
Tree-lined beauty where Aix's social life unfolds. This 1640s avenue, shaded by towering plane trees, buzzes with cafes where Cézanne once lingered. It's the city's vibrant heart.
“Shaded by a double row of tall plane trees, the Cours Mirabeau is one of the most beautiful avenues anywhere.”
– Fodor's
