Le Cours Mirabeau is a main thoroughfare built on the old ramparts in the city of Aix-en-Provence. Houses on both sides, constructed by wealthy families, are from the 17th and 18th centuries. Many are elegantly decorated and they are beautiful. I think Le Cours is one of the most attractive avenues in all of France, so it doesn't surprise me that it's always crowded with visitors and locals.
When you arrive here and see busy sidewalk cafés, shops and restaurants, you may immediately feel like you are transported to the Champs-Elysées or the Left Bank in Paris. But this is Provence. Start strolling under tall plane trees or grab a chair under one of the colorful umbrellas to have a drink, and you will notice the light shining through is definitely that of the south.
