A Day in Marseille

Vibrant and enduring. After just a few hours in Marseille, it's hard to know if those words are a better description of the city itself or of the color that splashes every part of the coastal community in shades of sea and sky.

Anchored by the ocean, this colorful, gritty, optimistic city has changed over the centuries. Its relationship with the Mediterranean waters that surround it, though, remains as steady and constant as its bold, refreshing spirit.
