WHY GO

Marseille, the capital of Provence, is at the opposite end of the Riviera from its flashy rival, Nice, both in terms of location and image. There are no manicured promenades and no glitzy hotels in this louche port. But for all its shabbiness, pollution and congestion, Marseille is one of the most exhilarating cities in France, offering a polyglot of cultures and races, and some of the best restaurants in the country.
