Gateway to Mediterranean

Located in the second arrondissement of Marseille, Le Panier is a lovely area that is worth visiting. The major tourist attraction here is the Cathédrale La Major (Marseille Cathedral), a Roman Catholic cathedral which is also a national monument of France. Mucem - Museum of Civilizations of Europe and the Mediterranean is also located in Le Panier, at the entrance of the Marseille port. There is nowhere better than learning about the civilizations of the Mediterranean for the 21st century here in Marseille, where it is now France's largest city on the Mediterranean coast. Fos Port which is nearby also serves as the gateway to connect France with other Mediterranean cities such as Tunis, Ajaccio, Algiers and others. #fallingforfall #marseille
