Link to image attributionSituated in western France on the river Sèvre Niortaise, Niort was once a wealthy port town before becoming an important modern finance center. Niort offers many museums that showcase the city's impressive past. The Museum Bernard d'Agesci displays many exhibits on the area's cultural heritage, plus natural history and fine arts collections. Le Musée du Donjon de Niort, housed in the keep of the original wall surrounding the city, educates visitors on the city's history and displays archaeological and ethnographic collections.
Contrasting the city center's vast stone architecture, Niort lies on the eastern edge of an incredibly scenic marshland region. The Marais Poitevin is the closest part to the city, and with the nickname "green Venice," it offers a peaceful place to spend time in nature, crossing wooden footbridges over slow-moving streams.
To experience an authentic French Saturday market, visit Les Halles de Niort to wander through the many stalls selling all kinds of local and handmade products, with the opportunity to sample regional foods at one of the several cafes.
Niort's SNCF station lies on the TGV Paris- Montparnasse - La Rochelle line, and the TER line, for easy rail access to the rest of France. National and international bus services also operate from Niort. The nearest airport is about 60 kilometers away, in La Rochelle.

Marseille is the oldest city in France and the second-largest city after Paris. Although this ancient port town may seem lacking glamour and sophistication, Marseille makes up for this through its cultural depth and rich history.
One of the most popular attractions in Marseille is the Basilique Notre Dame de la Garde. This 19th-century cathedral sits on a hill overlooking the city and can be reached either by regular buses or on foot. If you make the climb, your rewards will be impressive views of Marseille and an awe-inspiring mosaic interior. Thanks to a recent cultural renaissance, Marseille is also home to many new museums and galleries. The Musée d'Histoire de Marseille guides you through the city's rich maritime history and includes exhibitions on the cathedral's construction. The Mucem, or Museum of Civilizations of Europe and the Mediterranean, is an award-winning modern institution devoted to regional history.
After a day of exploring the city, spend a relaxing evening on one of the nearby picturesque Mediterranean beaches, or wander through the Vieux Port for exceptional photo opportunities and authentic local seafood restaurants.
Marseille is easily accessible via plane, train, bus, or sea. Marseille-Provence International Airport is only 30km from the city, with many shuttle services offering direct transfer. TGV services connect Marseille by rail to cities across the country and to Spain, as well. Eurolines and other buses cover routes from Marseille to Paris, Lyon, Toulouse, Genoa, and more.
