Paris,
c’est fini. We’re kidding, obviously, but Marseille, Europe’s latest
Capital of Culture, is l’endroit to be in 2013, with a rejuvenated
waterfront; starchitecture courtesy of Zaha Hadid and Kengo Kuma; a new
mouthful of a museum, the Musée des Civilisations de l'Europe et de la
Méditerranée; a 2,000-seat concert hall; and much more. Plus, its
Mediterranean location means that France’s oldest and second largest
city has always had great seafood (bouillabaisse was born here) and sun
(over 300 days a year). Don’t expect polish — this former industrial
city is still gritty, but you'll leave with considerably more Euros in
your pocket than you would post Paris.
