Bonifacio, picturesque capital of Corsica. The author, M Valéry, like Charles V or Napoleon Bonaparte was subjugated by the extreme beauty of Bonifacio. He resumes in two well-chosen words – picturesque capital – the strong sensations and unforgettable souvenir offered by the “City of Cliffs”. It has to be said that with its millenary fortress, its 5 historical monuments, its houses perched 60 meters over the sea and its 120 kilometers of coastline, Bonifacio has more than enough to satisfy curiosities and fulfill desires.
