What a fantasic square for people watching, enjoying a tasty meal, cooling off with some lucious Italian ice cream or having a refreshing drink. It is a must when visiting Bastia. There are a couple of interesing historical statues to see including an interesting one of Napolean Bonaparte in Roman dress. From here you can watch the huge Ferries entering & departing from the port. There is plenty of parking in the area as well. For us Floridians it was a pleasure to sit under the majestic "plane trees" and cool off with a Corsican libation! Thanks St. Nicholas Square in Bastia, Corsica, France!

We were there, when the yearly salon de chocolat was happening, a sort of trade fair surrounding the production of chocolate and sweets in Corsica. This was worth it. Otherwise its a lively space with lots of cafés and restaurants right next to the harbour. Heart of the town.

La grande place d'où part le petit train. Visite commentée de 50 minutes pour 8 euros. Vous y trouverez un parking couvert en partie et pleins de restaurants en face des quais d'embarquement. En quittant la statue de l'empereur et marchant vers le nord 5 minutes, vous arrivez sur la place du marché et ensuite sur le vieux port. Deux choses à voir sur cette place : La statut de l'empereur tournée vers la mer et dotée d'une musculature légèrement revisitėe à la sauce grecque. Puis une réplique du Kiosque du sous-marin CASABIANCA qui participa à la libération de la Corse pendant la seconde Guerre Mondiale sous les ordres de Jean l'Herminier.

A good place to park, close to shops and the citadel. I recommend parking inside to beat the heat. The entrance to the underground portion is close to the exit on the right, so, it is a little confusing.

Beautiful place bordered by an avenue. You can sit in the shade, there are a variety of restaurants and bars. We were allowed to attend the fireworks on July 14, great atmosphere, highly recommended.
