Marseille, a city that has proudly hosted the Tour de France on 34 occasions as either a starting or finishing point, holds a special place in the cycling world. But beyond its cycling connections, Marseille stands as an emblematic city that embodies both history and diversity. As the second-largest city in France and the capital of the Côte d’Azur region of Provence, Marseille holds a prominent position on the map and in the hearts of many.
Marseille's significance stretches far beyond its borders. This ancient port city has deep-rooted connections to Italy, Spain, and Africa, earning it the nickname "Port d'Afrique." Its bustling port, often referred to as the Vieux Port (Old Port), has been a hub of trade and cultural exchange for centuries, shaping Marseille into one of Europe's oldest, most cosmopolitan, and diverse cities.
Worth seeing
A Majestic Viewpoint: A journey from the Vieux Port to the majestic church, Notre Dame de la Garde, offers not only a unique experience but also breathtaking views. This old harbor, bustling with history, provides a glimpse into Marseille's maritime past. The church itself has a special connection with fishermen, who used to bring their boats for blessings. The interior of the church even boasts boats as decorations, a tribute to this tradition.
Cultural and Historical Treasures: For enthusiasts of culture and history, Marseille boasts an array of fascinating museums. One such gem is the Musée d'Archéologie Méditerranéenne. This museum, which was once a refuge for beggars in the 17th century, now houses a collection of archaeological discoveries from the Greek, Roman, and Egyptian civilizations. It serves as a testament to Marseille's deep-rooted connections with ancient civilizations.
Trendy Vibes and Shopping Delights: To experience Marseille's modern and vibrant side, head to the trendy area of le Cours Julien and Place Jean Jaurès. Here, you'll find a lively atmosphere with abundant opportunities for shopping, café hopping, and indulging in culinary delights. This area captures the essence of contemporary Marseille, where history and modernity coexist harmoniously.
A City That Captivates: Marseille's allure goes beyond its role as a host for cycling events. Its history, diversity, and cultural richness make it a city that captivates both residents and visitors alike. Whether you're exploring the Vieux Port, taking in panoramic views from Notre Dame de la Garde, immersing yourself in archaeology, or strolling through trendy neighborhoods, Marseille promises an unforgettable experience that embraces the spirit of Provence and the Mediterranean.
