Marseille, France

Marseille, the generous capital of southern Europe, immediately plunges you into a bath of Provence, where the accent is singing and the folk folk. Sunny city, its evocation transports you directly in the films of Pagnol. The Phocaean city is visited for its Old Port, its renewed districts of Panier and Docks, its bouillabaisse and its Pastis. Named European Capital of Culture in 2013, Marseille intends to show a different face than that of its troubled suburbs. Its bright cornice in front of the deep blue of the Mediterranean, its wild creeks or the gardens of the Pharo are essential.
