Welcome to the coolest district in the world! It's not me who says it, but the famous British magazine Time Out, which this year elevated the Marseille artists' district to first place in its annual ranking.
The Maison is located in a secluded area, in a quiet area, near the Notre-Dame du Mont Church, the Cours Julien, the Plaine and the Place Castellane. The streets of the Cours Ju are an open-air gallery where Streets art is exhibited freely, each shop calling on an artist different for its visual identity.
The decorations are constantly evolving because pasters and graffiti artists come to converse with the existing works. Terribly photogenic!
During the day, you can go shopping in the many vintage or designer boutiques, have lunch in affordable restaurants, have a drink on one of the many terraces, go to the farmers' market or the trinket market of the nearby Plaine, on Wednesdays or Saturdays.
La Plaine is both the meeting place for skateboarders and kids. It has a large and very nice playground in its center.
In the evening, the Cours Ju becomes the most popular party district for trendy night owls.
Both bohemian and popular, its population is cool!
There is something for everyone: bars, bars, electro clubs, rocks, salsa ... the Espace Julien concert hall welcomes the best artists of the moment.
If you want to get away from the turbulent Cours Ju, the Boulevard Chave is full of nice little restaurants.
The shopping mall is close by and the Old Port is only about twenty minutes away on foot.
Not far from there on the Cours Liautaud, bus 81 as well as the 54 boulevard Baille, will drop you off near the Catalans beach.
To reach the Prado beaches, you will have to take bus 19, place Castellane.
Getting around
Bus, metros, tram nearby.
