We present an axiomatic theory, based on the notions of metric space and space with a (first order) neighbour relation. The axiomatics implies a synthetic proof of Huygens' principle of wave fronts, as envelopes of a family of spheres. A model of the axiomatics is presented in terms of synthetic differential geometry (SDG).
