Beauxbatons Academy of Magic is a fictional magic school similar to Hogwarts in the Harry Potter series of books. It was first introduced in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire and existed at least 700 years ago, as that was when they began participating in the Triwizard Tournament. Beauxbatons is located in France and its headmistress is Olympe Maxime.
"Beaux bātons" is French for "beautiful sticks." The "bātons" part is presumably a reference to magical wands. The French word for "magic wand" is "baguette magique", which would make most people in the English-speaking world think of a loaf of bread, so it's not surprising Rowling didn't use it.
The food, at least according to Fleur Delacour, is delicious but much lighter than the food served at Hogwarts. Some have speculated that since bouillabaisse was served at the opening feast of the Triwizard Tournament, and this fish soup is generally served in southeast France, one could assume that Beauxbatons is somewhere on the Mediterranean coast of France, perhaps Marseille. This would also explain why Beauxbatons students are so cold when they are in Hogwarts. However, Beauxbatons is unplottable, so no muggles or even wizards from rival schools can find it on a map, and it may be disguised so no one can really see it unless they know to look for it.
The students' uniforms also suggest they are accustomed to warmer weather than what they encounter at Hogwarts. Beauxbatons uniforms are made of light blue silk, and the school coat of arms is two golden wands crossed over one another, each shooting three stars. They also seem to care more about their studies and their school's reputation.
The Academy is in a glittering palace, probably newer and brighter than Hogwarts Castle; it's existence dates back to seven hundred years ago, when the Triwizard Tournament was founded; Beauxbatons has participated in each and every event since then. Rather than suits of armour, the halls of Bauxbatons are flanked by statues of diamond. The palace contains choirs of wood nymphs, who serenade them while they eat.
