When you walk in at 3:30, you are at the place where the first nine musical notes of the chorus of "C'est si Bon" (F, E, Eb, F, G, A, G, F, D) came to the mind of Nice composer Henri Betti (1917-2005) when he looked at bras presented in the window of a "Scandale" lingerie boutique ! At the time, this avenue was called "Avenue de la Victoire".

It is possible, however It would be a long swim. It took me 15-20 minutes to hike there from Cape Archangelos Beach. I did take a few breaks because of the heat.

Listening to the guide looking out onto the plane explaining where Achilles killed Hector, and where the Horse was brought through the gate to Cassandra's dismay (probably!) is spine tingling. And all those 'ancient civilisations' that came after the destruction and built their tourist buildings there, like Alexander the Great and the Romans. All because of the Illiad, and the story it contained. Thank heaven it's come down to us in modern times. What a unique place.

Another great video - thanks so much for sharing your experiences at that unique place. It is gratifying to see others wandering about, wanting to know what happened there. It's my understanding that the battlefield just stayed untouched until after the war .. visitors - usually other soldiers - would just be walking among dead bodies and destroyed equipment, guns and shells everywhere. After the first bombardments in Feb and March 1916, when all the trees and roads and paths were gone, it must have been impossible to find your way anyplace, especially in the dark .. just one mud hole after the next. The wooden monument beside the resting place of those dead French soldiers was very moving. Looked like it was carved from a tree trunk, I'm guessing from nearby. The monuments of Verdun are worthy of. their own documentary - as unlike other war monuments, they don't glorifying the battle at all. They are very sober and sad and even macabre in their depiction of the horrors of the battle. Thanks again. Always excited to see one your episodes pop up.

I believe Marshal Petain would stand on the balcony atop those stairs and watch his troops stagger back from the battlefield. It made a terrible impression on him, and the memory of those destroyed young men must have contributed to his willingness to capitulate to the Nazis in 1940. He paid a dear price for his surrender, going from eternal of hero of France for saving Verdun, to disgraced collaborator who betrayed France. His dying wish was to be buried with his men at Verdun, but that honor has been denied him. I thought his body might finally be moved to Verdun as part of the 100 year anniversary commemoration, but apparently memories are long. Perhaps one day.
