Photo “Quai du Port” The quays of Marseille have evolved a lot in recent years. It is so pleasant and calming to walk there to admire the sunset and the moored boats. Marseille is the oldest city in France. In fact, it is more than 2600 years old. Founded by the Greeks, it was first called Massalia, then Marsiho in Provençal. Only the Quai Rive Neuve (which did not bear that name at that time) existed. Marseille expanded thanks to the decisions of King Louis XIV, then Napoleon III. They took turns building the Canebière and the Rue de la République. Several high-ranking people have tried to shape the city, but Marseille remains rebellious, sometimes insolent and expresses its freedom in its own way.     Even today, Marseille shines with its difference and its contrasts. She defeated anyone who would try to control her. She comes up with her own rules. This dichotomy positions it as a fierce, independent and sunny city. It is the capital of the Mediterranean.
