Toulon, Port city in Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur, France.
Located between Marseille and Saint Tropez, Toulon stretches along the Mediterranean coast with Mount Faron rising 542 meters behind the city center.
The Romans established a military base named Telo Martius, which evolved into France's primary Mediterranean naval base through centuries of maritime development.
The daily market in the old town presents local products while the Zenith concert hall accommodates 8,500 people for performances throughout the year.
Toulon-Hyeres International Airport connects the city with European destinations, while the train station provides regular services to Marseille and Nice.
The naval port features a scuttled fleet from World War II, when French sailors sank their own ships to prevent German forces from using them.
