Marseille Latest: Docks and Shopping News
@Choose Marseille Tourisme Guest Post · Inspire · Shopping & GiftsWandering through Les Docks Village last week, late morning, I was surprised how quiet it was. It’s been open a year now and is an imaginative conversion of a very characterful industrial building.

Unfortunately, even with plenty of retail stores and dining locations, Les Docks Village needs an ‘enseigne locomotive’.
