Travelling through Marseilles, France

Marseilles is very quiet but big. What I mean by this is it doesn't have many historical features, but it is a very beautiful French city. They have a nice little marina where boats are docked. It has many cathedrals and it is very pleasing to the eye. The architecture and layout of the city is very appealing. There are many cafes located around the marina. They even have a merry-go-round in town. But the highlight would be the cathedral at the top of the hill, Notre Dame of Marseilles. I will explain in my other journal about it.

Quick Tips:

Camera, film & video. I would recommend a nice quiet day of walking and taking in the sites. Then have a nice lunch/ early dinner at one of the nice quiant cafes.

Best Way To Get Around:

I would recommend walking around because it is very appealing to the eye. A taxi ride could have you miss all the scenery. Public transportation and taxis are available.

Very beautiful cathedral at the top of the hill from town. It is near the marina and one could not miss it on the top of the hill. I learned from personal experience that is a hike to the top, I would highly recommend a taxi or public transportation. I was passed by many on my way up wishing I was in one of them. Very steep hill. The cathedral is adorned at the top with a pure gold statue of Mary and baby Jesus. The view from up there is incredible. The cathedral is very amazing. It is definitely worth the ride..
