As soon as I stepped foot in Calvi, it was like walking through a page from history. The magnificent Citadelle, perched high on the cliffs overlooking the harbor, is a must-visit. With its medieval architecture and panoramic views of both land and sea, wandering these ancient streets made me feel like I had traveled back in time.
