Since its founding by the Greeks around 600 B.C., Marseille, a port city in southern France, has been a crossroads of immigration and commerce. The Vieux-Port (Old Port) is at its heart, where fishmongers sell their catch along the quay lined by ships.
The port city of Marseille, France's third-largest city, where style and history meet. The lake, flanking Fort Saint-Nicolas, and Fort Saint-Jean shelters the renown of Count of Monte Cristo from the Castle of If. Watched over by Notre-Dame-de-la-Garde Basilica, the pedestrian zones and shopping areas of the town are mixed with historic sites.
Marseille mixes swagger in the big city with sociability in the fishing-village. It is a city that locals love or love to hate — and that outsiders sometimes ignored because of its crime reputation. Yet in recent years, France's second-largest city (by population) has attracted Parisians to enjoy more sun and less busy travelers in the South of France.
Marseille is not made up of monumental sights, but simple things: outdoor terraces, street art, an improvised aperitif at one of its many tiny ports, with your feet hanging in the water.
Marseille goes forward-sometimes cultivated. Springing up new museums and galleries. There are loads of trendy restaurants and bars. The hotel's openings bang in. The town of the 21st century recaptures 19th-century industrial grandeur. It has a sophisticated swagger as it aspires to reclaim the status of a world capital.
The Southern and Eastern suburbs of Marseille brush up against an area of extraordinary natural beauty.
Almost every one of these seems to have a café, fish restaurant or bar on its ground floor, with outdoor seating so you can see life unfolding in this enchanting town as you nurse a pastis.
The industry has long moved northward to the new port and most of the vessels in the old harbor area for recreation.
Marseille's Old Port (Vieux Port) surrounds a vibrant yacht marina and is renowned for its luxurious hotels, waterfront cafes and seafood restaurants serving mullet and lobster from the quayside fish market.
