Bastia Sights

  1. Jardin Romieu

    From the south side of the Vieux Port, steps lead up to the Jardin Romieu, a pleasant expanse of green that clings to the hillside for dear life. The even steeper steps and tunnel of the rampe St-Charles bring you through the defensive walls of the citadel to place du Donjon, at its heart.

  3. Vieux Port

    Follow the square, narrow side streets as they wind their way between tall houses down to the Vieux Port and quai des Martyrs de la Libération.
