Bastia, Korsika Frankreich

Bastia is the lively and cultural city in Corsica as well as its business and financial centre. It was the capital of the Genoese administration of Corsica until the mid-18th century. It has preserved the architecture and atmosphere of that time, and has a rugged, unrefined charm. But Bastia is undoubtedly Mediterranean. The old quarter, known as the Terra Vecchia, is full of wonderful streets, cute shops and flamboyant Baroque churches. There are many things to explore like the 15th century Oratoire St.Roch with a rich Baroque interior and a fantastic organ or Corsica's largest church, the 17th century Saint-Jean Baptiste cathedral. In the nearby Place du Marche, there is a flea market every weekend. The area surrounding the Citadelle, Terra Nova neighbourhood, is one of the most colourful parts of town. Just take time to wonder around its restored houses and mansions. Stroll around the Palace of the Governors once grand gardens, Jardin Romieu, from where you can enjoy a view of the Vieux Port, the Old Port. The Vieux Port is a wonderful part of the city, with tall, faded buildings surrounding a marina with posh yachts. Corsica’s most successful commercial town is a lively and charming place with a wonderful port, interesting architecture, good restaurants and many cultural events. Bastia is much more than sun and sand.
