A boat sails into the sunset at Marseille, in the south of France.
Marseille has such beautiful sunsets that it’s difficult not to get a great photo. It’s such an interesting place, too. You can almost see Africa from here, as it’s just across the sea (maybe on a clear day you could, but I doubt it).
There are a lot of African people here, giving it a really different feel to the rest of France. Marseille is over 2600 years old and was originally a Greek port. It’s also where the Count of Monte Cristo is set.
