The Calanques National Park

We can never say it enough: how lucky we are to have a piece of paradise right here. Several calanques await you to get those likes bursting under the Marseille sun, so make the most of it.

The Radiant City

Often overlooked by Instagrammers, the Radiant City, an architectural masterpiece by Le Corbusier, is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site. While its unique and colorful facade and interior have been making waves since the 1950s, its rooftop terrace and view should also inspire you with ideas for picture-perfect moments.
