The Capital of Corsica is Ajaccio. Of what we saw it’s was neat and well kept. We hopped on the road train which gave us a tour with a couple of photo stops on the way round. The first stop was at a big monument to Napoleon.
I know who Napoleon was of course, but what surprised me was the degree to which he is revered by Corsicans, and perhaps the French?
I have never thought of him like that. This wasn’t the only monument, there were statues including one of him surrounded by his four brothers.
He was born in Ajaccio, and his house is just off a small but very busy street. Unfortunately, we didn’t have a chance to visit it.
Things like this remind me just how much I don’t know.
