View from the cathedral...

Sunday afternoon I walked from the Old Port in Marseilles up to Notre-Dame de la Garde. I should have taken the bus (look at the ridiculous slope of the street below). This beautiful cathedral sits atop a hill and commands a view of Marsailles and the surrounding area in all directions. After Sugar Loaf and Corcovado in Rio, this may be the most impressive view I've ever seen.

The catherdral is amazing inside as well.

It was only when I went out on my room's balcony at night that I noticed that I can see the cathedral from there!
