Le Roucas-Blanc
It is the most posh district of Marseilles made up of a bourgeois habitat, former ``summer houses`` of the rich industrial families of Marseilles.
It takes its name from the rock on which it is located (“Rocher Blanc”), which explains its characteristic staircases allowing superb views.
Near Notre-Dame de la Garde, it overlooks the Corniche Kennedy and the beaches of the Catalans, Malmousque and the Prophet. Stroll through its steep streets and stop by the Culti to enjoy a good barbecue.
A pearl of peace and quiet in the center of the city…
