Aix-les-Bains

All photos on this post except the last one were taken in the French town of Aix-les-Bains,

in the Department of Savoie. Aix-les-Bains is a spa town which has several Art Nouveau grand hotels, most of which have been converted to apartment buildings.  The photo of the small church (chapelle Notre Dame des Neiges) was taken during a trip to Le Revard, at a place called La Feclaz.
