We arrived Marseille via port Provence. We took bus shuttle to the city and were lucky to find a tour for Notre Dame de la Garde.
Notre Dame de la Garde is a enormous Basilica sits on a hill overlooking the city with a superb view of the Vieux Port. The 19th century cathedral is decorated in a Neo Byzantine style and the interior boasts impressive multicolored marble, mosaics and murals.
Then we took Metro to visit the Longchamp Palace. It was built to celebrate the opening of the Marseille canal in the 19th century.
It is a little bit lack of maintenance; however, it is beautiful and elegant.
