Marseille France

Marseille is the second biggest city in France, the largest port on the Mediterranean, and the economic center of the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region. Marseille is situated in a stunning location, nestled between rugged limestone hills and a vast bay, and is steeped in history, which wasn't always pleasant. Marseille is a favored vacation spot, boasting 300 days of sunshine annually. Today, Marseille still retains remnants of its turbulent past, this ancient city is now very vibrant and appealing. It possesses a potent allure that invites visitors to wander through its old neighborhoods around the Old Port, in the gardens with the ancient ruins or the gardens of Longchamp Palace and, of course, on the esplanade of Notre-Dame-de-la-Garde Cathedral, which offers a panoramic view of the entire city. Marseille is atmospheric and captivating, making it an absolute must-visit.
