When I told people I was visiting Marseille I got a lot of mixed reviews. Someone told me I would love it and it was even more beautiful than Paris!...and then someone else told me it was a dirty city overrun by immigrants (which in their opinion was a bad thing)...So, I had no idea what to expect when I arrived at the train station. Luckily we were staying with our amazing friend Charlotte who showed us how incredible Marseille really is! What I discovered about Marseille is that it is a lively city filled with art, music, cafés, beautiful landscape, multicultural neighborhoods, delicious food.... and the best part about this city is the amazing people that inhabit it!
If you are wondering whether or not to visit Marseille, I hope that this post can help you make up your mind! These 25 photos were taken throughout my four day stay in the city. There are so many more moments that I wish I could have caught on camera, but I hope you enjoy the ones I did!
