toulon Toulon France: More than Just a Port

2 mai 2025
Toulon is a major French naval port that has thrived on efforts of the Roman imperials, the French Crown, the French revolutionaries, more French built on France's desire to grow itself into a world power and continuing to stand proudly through every government, republic, monarchy, emire and more republics that have come it's way since the days when the frst Roman conquerers took one look, thought this was a great harbor, but not much more, and moved on.

There is a lot to see here, and I got a native's eye view, guided by an acquaintance who had lived here most of her life.  Runaway with me as we explore Toulon.
