As you pack up the kids to head back to school, perhaps you are feeling a little nostalgic for your own school days.\u00a0 Why not try and capture some of your collegiate spirit in one of the oldest university towns in Europe, Aix-en-Provence?\u00a0 You won\u2019t have to live in musty old dorm rooms with a luxurious apartment rental from New York Habitat.<\/p>\n

Ideally located in the heart of Provence, Aix-en-Provence has been known as a university town since 1409. <\/strong>To this day, its reputation stands and is home to some of the most prestigious, and oldest, universities in France.\u00a0 But if you\u2019re not all about books and studying, don\u2019t worry; there are plenty of attractions in Aix-en-Provence<\/a> as well.<\/p>\n

Museums abound in Aix, especially since the painter Paul C\u00e9zanne called this town home<\/strong> for much of his life.\u00a0 Besides a museum built around C\u00e9zanne\u2019s studio, his father\u2019s house, and the surrounding grounds, is now also partially open to the public.\u00a0 There are also quite a few museums dedicated to Aix\u2019s history, which is quite extensive considering it dates back to 123 BC!\u00a0 Aix is also well known for its fountains, bell towers, and architecture.<\/strong> Stroll about town, or rent a bike to get you around, and soak up the French atmosphere.\u00a0 After your day of sight-seeing, head to Les Deux Gar\u00e7ons, a brasserie that\u2019s been around since 1792 and has served such remarkable clients as C\u00e9zanne, French author Emile Zola, and American author Ernest Hemingway!<\/p>\n
