Holidays in Corsica

Corsica is an island in the Mediterranean Sea, an autonomous territory of France with its own administration and dialect. It is not French, but Koreans, the most famous of whom, of course, Napoleon Bonaparte, born in Ajacho on 15 August 1769.

In France, Corsica entered only in the sixteenth century, and before that, the turbulent history of the island remembers Romans, visas, Spanish, English and Goesians. The very first settlements appeared on Korsik over 9,000 years ago, and traces of them continue to be found throughout the island.

The shell is rich in fantastic landscapes, the nature of it is very diverse and reminds all of Europe in miniatures, beaches, beaches, rocks, mountains, lakes, hills and forests of great magnitude, and almost without civilization.

Coming up to Corsica, the first thing you see from the sea is the snowed beers of her high mountains, the highest of which is Chinto's peak, which is 2,700 m high. Then, from the lazurous sea, there are basic forests, vineyards, shore panoramas turning out to be small bangs, red shores, clean beaches and dunes and old guard towers. Nearly all coastal cities of the island have such towers, because in the old age, this paradise has often been subjected to devastating sea raids.

Frequently, residents had to go to the mountains or hide in famous makas. Macy is a thick growing of guns and escapes intersecting. This is also the name of the inner part of the island, a non-manufactured terrain consisting of mountains and valleys.

Prosper Merime wrote more than 100 years ago: " If you killed a man, run to the ponta Vekchio mask, and you live there safely with a good gun, powder and bullets... The pastures will give you milk, cheese and cashtans, and you have nothing to fear justice or the relatives of the victim unless there is a need to go down to town to replenish the powder."

Today, the maquis of the central part of the island is a protected reserve, a religious and natural park of Corsiki.
