Marseille City Guide for Visitors

Why Visit Marseille? Because Marseille is unlike any other city in France or the world, and with a history spanning over 2600 years, there is no shortage of things to discover. On the shores of the Mediterranean, you get the best of the city and beach in one place. In Marseille, you feel simultaneously on both sides of the Mediterranean Sea, thanks to the large North African population. The capital of Provence still has the Provençal clichés of pastis, pétanque, and colourful facades. At the same time, the city is invigorated by street art, food from across the globe, and an epic coastline.

Guide to Antiques, Markets, Waterwheels and more reasons to visit L’Isle sur la Sorgue

On a Sunday morning in L’Isle sur la Sorgue, the market winds through the old town and along the quay (river walk). There are only a few Sunday markets in the region, and this one is the largest, attracting locals and visitors. Like Apt’s Saturday market, the line between retail and market is blurred as many boutiques add their wares to the temptation. However, L’Isle sur la Sorgue approaches the scale of a Parisian marketplace with t some 300+ antique and bric-a-brac stores within the townsite. It’s worth visiting this market but go early.
