Palais Longchamp Concerts

A beautiful building at the end of the main road that certainly makes you stop in your tracks. There is a museum here and gardens foe you to enjoy. We were slightly disappointed that the Palace seems to have been let go a little. There was lots of rubbish on the steps, graffiti on the buildings and the water was green and dirty. Our visit was mid April, so hopefully they clean it up and have the water running and the fountain on in summer. A great place for photos if you edit out the rubbish and the graffiti.

Remarkable place. Went on a cloudy day but I would expect this place to be much more serene if it was during a sunny sunset. Regardless, it was worth the trip and a definite go to if you’re planning a day trip to Marseille.

Very beautiful and large-scale architecture of the building is combined with a cascade of fountains and greenery. The building houses a magnificent collection of flora and fauna of France. Entrance is absolutely free, which is a great rarity in our time. I highly recommend to visit this location.

This palace is less so a palace and more a large statue / fountain which is quite beautiful and much larger than I anticipated. The natural history museum and fine arts museum on either side make up what was probably the palace at one point. The fine art museum was free when I attended and it seems it’s often free. It’s quite small but the collection is interesting and worth the time and I’d say I would pay 5 euros if it was required of me.

Just visited the park to see the structure. The Gardens at the top looked a tad worn and outdated. Tipping during special occasions and maybe different season of the year might have some more colour and growth. Still a must see.
