For5 Notre Dame de la Garde

We climbed the steep slopes and many steps to this magnificent Basilica overlooking the town of Marseilles today. A beautiful blue-sky day, so the views across the town were amazing. The basilica was first opened in 1897, but grew out of the Fort originally built there in the 15th century.

Well done. This place is indeed very nice. Took a lot of photos there. interior and exterior!

I wasn't posting on 365 at that time... but here are some instagram souvenir from Marseille.

Well done for climbing the steps. On my last visit to Marseille I lunched too extravagantly on the last day and never made it to here, so thanks for the photo. I read today it is about to be closed for restoration.

This is a great shot- the contrast just jumps off the page. I'm sure it is as amazing as you say and worth the dedication to climb all those stairs!
