This is an amazing collection of carved standing stones, also known as 'Menhirs', which date to around 1500 B.C. These stones are highly unusual and very different to what we usually think of as standing stones, as many of them are carved with human faces and anatomical details. They really make you contemplate the nature of civillisation more than 3000 years ago!

Bastia Vieux Port and Citadelle (Terra Nova) are very attractive places to wander. You get very good views from the Citadelle, particularly from the Bar de la Citadelle. There's a 'petit train' which takes you around (and up the hill to the Citadelle which is good when it's hot) for six Euros and runs every hour from near the ferry port. If you understand French the tour is good.
