Aix-les-Bains is a town in the Savoie district, in the region of Rhône-Alpes in southeastern France. It covers 12.62 sq km (4.87 sq mi) and has a population of 27,000 people (2012 estimate).

Aix-les-Bains is located on the eastern part of Lac du Bourget. It occupies the slope leading up to the Tour de L'Angle Est, which is 1,562 m (5,124 ft) tall. The town got its name "Aix", which is derived from the word Aquae meaning water in Latin, because it was a bath during the Roman period.

Among the most popular sights in town is Faure Museum, which has an impressive collection of paintings by Rodin and other Impressionist painters.

About this website

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
