    Théâtre Gallo Romain de Fourvière is a Roman theatre built on the hill of Fourvière. The theatre is part of a UNESCO World Heritage Site, protecting the historic centre of Lyon.

    The theatre was built in two steps: around 15 BC, a theatre with a 90 m diameter was built next to the hill. At the beginning of the 2nd century, the final construction added a final place for the audience. The diameter is 108 m, and there were seats for 10,000 people.

    Today the theatre is primarily a tourist site, but it is still used as a cultural venue. Each year, the Nuits de Fourvière festival takes place in the theatre.    Weiterlesen

    Lunch at Chez Etienne in Marseille followed by a wander... A stunning town.

    Marseille, France's second city and oldest port, spreads from its historic Vieux-Port up into the surrounding hills. The city's character is defined by its Mediterranean identity, where centuries of maritime trade and immigration have created a distinctly multicultural atmosphere. The Notre-Dame de la Garde basilica stands sentinel over the city, whilst at street level, the bustling Noailles quarter offers North African markets and spice shops. Around the Vieux-Port, restaurants serve the city's signature bouillabaisse, whilst ferry boats shuttle visitors to the Château d'If. The recently developed Euroméditerranée district and the striking MuCEM (Museum of European and Mediterranean Civilisations) represent Marseille's modern face, contrasting with the historic Le Panier neighbourhood's narrow lanes and artisanal shops.Weiterlesen

    Saint-Chamas in the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region in southern France.

    Saint Chamas is a small village on the northern shores of the Etang de Berre. The village is divided into two parts by a hill riddled with caves. On one side, it looks out into a pine forest and hills and, on the other, onto a pleasant marina.

    Had lunch in a nice restaurant, La Digue, right on the water.    Weiterlesen
