Forlagsbeskrivelse af Secret Corsica af Rocio Sierra Carbonell

Step off the beaten track with this fascinating Corsica guide book. Let our local experts show you the well-hidden treasures and hidden places of this amazing island. Featuring over 190 unusual and unfamiliar places, this Secret Corsica guide is ideal for local inhabitants, curious visitors and armchair travellers alike. Discover a forgotten fresco by Marc Chagall in a mountain village, a magnificent American villa where you can spend the night, the superb Corsican beach used as a setting for the D-Day Normandy landings in The Longest Day movie, remarkable paintings by a civilian First World War PoW, a miniature village built with pebbles, golden hands embedded in the rock a two-hour walk into the mountains, a papier-mache statue of the Virgin Mary, an unusual pool-table pocket bearing the image of Napoleon, a brick from the Holy Door of a church in Rome, a confessional cleverly hidden behind woodwork, the world's largest citrus fruit collection, the painting of an eagle under a balcony, a Bonaparte family tree made from locks of hair, a sleepover in a lighthouse far from civilisation... Corisca is far from the holiday cliches of beaches, mountains and gastronomy. Its little-known treasures are only revealed to locals and travellers who are prepared to venture off the beaten track. An essential guide for those who thought they knew the island well or would like to discover its other aspects.
