Hi lads I'm traveling to Marseille in 12 hours via plane, I'm planning to go to aubagne and join the legion but while I'm there I might as well do some sightseeing. I'll spend 2-3 days before taking a shot for the legion. Any tips and advices are welcome. What tourist attractions are there? Where should I visit? What should I look out for or avoid? Now all of these can be googled but personal experiences are what I want to hear.
Any cheap hotel and hostel recommendations are welcome too, I have about 150 euros in cash and 1000 more in my card but I need to be a bit frugal. I'll check the thread after I wake up.

Well if anyone is interested, sharing my experience so far. French people are not rude and they dont stink, streets smell like piss, too many historical buildings to cover and found a neat hotel for 35€ could find a cheaper one but I dont wanna take a bus to the city and dont wanna get crabs/HIV or whatever

Posting some pics from the city

I'll make an imgur album for the cathedrale sainte marie majeure de marseille, too many photos

I don't know if it's worth going to, but I really wanted to go to the Château d'If last time I was there and was irritated that I never got the chance to. Can anyone who has gone there comment?
