U Vechju Portu - Nestled in a small cove beneath the mountains, the Old Port of Bastia is a must-visit location to explore the Island of Beauty. Although now used only for pleasure boats, it has been integral to the city’s history since the 11th century!

La Cittadella - As you stroll along the delightful Aldilonda, take a moment to learn about the must-see Citadel, one of the city’s most historic areas, located right above you. Featuring narrow streets, colorful houses with vibrant facades, and some of Bastia’s iconic monuments, the Citadel is known as Terra Nova, or the upper town, contrasting with the lower town, Terra Vecchia, which includes the Old Port and city center streets.

Jardin Romieu - To your right is the entrance to the Romieu Garden, sharing its name with the staircase below that leads to it.

Place Saint Nicolas - Welcome to the main square of Bastia! A favorite gathering spot for locals, this square is vibrant year-round: outdoor concerts in summer, an ice rink and Ferris wheel in winter, a Flea Market every Sunday morning, and even the Chocolate Fair every October. This expansive esplanade, with its surprising dimensions, is lined with trees along its length and features large palm trees at its end, instantly evoking the ambiance of the South.
