Place du Général de Gaulle 07/06/2013 17h08 My last photo of Aix uploaded of this holiday is taken at La Rotonde before getting the car out of the parking "Rotonde". This fountain was built in 1860 is one of the landmarks of Aix-en-Provence ever since. Aix hasn't seen the last of us... Aix-en-Provence Aix-en-Provence -or simply Aix- is a city-commune in south of France, about 30 km north of Marseille. It is in the region of Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur, in the département of Bouches-du-Rhône, of which it is a subprefecture. The population of Aix numbers approximately 143,000. Its inhabitants are called Aixois or, less commonly, Aquisextains. Aix was founded in 123 BC by the Roman consul Sextius Calvinus, who gave his name to its springs, following the destruction of the nearby Gallic oppidum at Entremont. Aix-en-Provence is situated in a plain overlooking the Arc, about a mile from the right bank of the river. The city slopes gently from north to south and the Montagne Sainte-Victoire can easily be seen to the east. Aix's position in the south of France gives it a warm climate. It has an average January temperature of 5 °C and a July average of 22 °C. It has an average of 300 days of sunshine and only 91 days of rain. While it is partially protected from the Mistral, Aix does occasionally suffer from the cold gusty conditions it brings. [ Source an more information: Wikipedia – Aix-en-Provence ]
