Formerly, this was the place where the fishermen and craftsmen of the city lived. Today, it remains an impression of simplicity, which makes that one quickly feels like in his hometown. If your walk begins at the Quai Jean Jaures, you will probably pass through the Place de l'Hôtel-de-Ville. Slow down your pace to enjoy the details of the beautiful carved door of Zanzibar. It is a wonder ! It is also in these streets that you will be able to stock up on local foodstuffs ... Small typical shops are full of goat cheeses and cold meats, dishes made with olives or wine high on the slopes of the heights of the city.
If you continue to the south of the city, treasures await you there. In particular, in an alley hides a fantastic collection.
