Port Toulon

Bateliers de la Cote d'Azur, Toulon, France | Quai Cronstadt

Description:

The port of the French city of Toulon due to the colorful nature, in which the main roles are assigned to the Mediterranean Sea, the sandy coast and the limestone mountain Pharon, is considered one of the most beautiful ports in Europe. The port city is also famous for its unique architecture, combining Greek and Roman cultures.

In this largest naval center of France are the aircraft of the French fleet with a combat group, as well as the Mediterranean fleet of the country.

Due to its convenient geographical location, the small port city is the industrial center of the state, in which such spheres of production as naval construction, the production of aviation equipment, electronic equipment, tobacco products, shoes, paper, as well as weapons, winemaking, cartography and fishing are widely developed.

The former colony of Greece and later the Roman Empire attracts crowds of tourists every year. After all, in addition to amazing architectural masterpieces, the authorities organize various festivals and exhibitions every year to attract them. Football fans will be interested to watch the matches during the prestigious international festival of future champions (Festival International Espoirs de Toulon et du Var), which gathers youth teams under 20 years old, including Olympic teams.

Toulon reveals its true charm in the evenings and not in the center. It is worth at least once to ride on the cable car to Mount Faron and look at the magnificent city in the rays of sunset. And at the same time listen to cicadas, which are considered one of the symbols of this port city.
