Anonymous userAnonymous userTickets were issued very quickly, and the local staff just took a picture of the QR code. The castle was very average, and there were many primary and secondary school students traveling, so the experience was relatively poor. There were Chinese instructions, which was quite convenient. The on-site queue to buy tickets was 7 euros, and those with EU residence permits under 26 were free.

袔樂袔樂Don't miss the Ile d'If when you are on vacation in Marseille, France. Go to the pier and buy a ticket for the time you want to go. The signs at the pier are also quite clear. It doesn't matter if you don't speak French. Just go to the place where there are many people queuing. Price: I remember that it seemed to be more than ten euros to buy a round-trip ticket. Because a friend happened to be studying in Marseille, I went there for a few days. I got used to the life in the north of France. The south of France is simply too charming. The sun, the island, the sunset at nine o'clock... Everything is too charming... The local environment nurtures the local people, so the people in the south of France are so lovely. It was quite fun to go there by yacht. It was quite bumpy, and you could see many people playing various water sports on the sea. I didn’t expect that I would get seasick when I returned to the main island of Marseille. I vomited on the roadside after dinner with my friends. But the passers-by in Marseille were very kind... They gave me tissues and water and asked my friends if I was okay... Although I felt uncomfortable in the car, I felt the enthusiasm of the people in southern France. I recommend everyone to come to Marseille.

前程风光qf3456792前程风光qf3456792The church building is worth seeing, forming a virtuous circle with the surrounding environment. It is closest to the Laogang Scenic Area. There are many introductions to the bishop's experience. If you have time, you can listen to the introduction!

UdjaatUdjaatThe magnificent and sleek Velodrome Stadium is the home stadium of Marseille Football Club. The huge white awning spreads out in a wave shape, full of dynamics. It was the venue for the 1998 World Cup and the 2016 European Cup. Get off at Rond-Point du Prado Station on the M2 Metro Line.
