Place Foch (Pass by)
Commonly known as the Place des Palmes, Marshal Foch’s Place was created at the beginning of the 19th century as the Check-out from the suburbs that led to the Old Town of Genoa. Overlooking the square, with his gaze fixed on the sea, stands the statue of Napoleon, guarded by a fountain with four lions lying down.

Here you are at the old port of Ajaccio, the port Tino Rossi! Yes, the city did not see the birth only of Napoleon! It is an ideal place to taste the charms of Corsica.
Port Tino Rossi (Pass by)

Do not trust its small size, this pretty baroque cathedral, with its ochre façade and its grey blue dome is the Cathedral of Santa Maria Assunta.
