CMFMAG TeamWelcome to our fourth #SightSeeingSunday page. Every week we share a photo from around the world! So check back often to see our #SightSeeingSunday photos! Where we are travelling from the comfort of our home.
Villefranche-sur-Mer, France
This week, our #SightSeeingSunday image showcases the stunning views of the French resort town of Villefranche-sur-Mer. Located on the French Riviera, Villefranche-sur-Mer is a medieval village that has been settled since prehistoric times. Celto-ligurian tribes roamed the area and established farming communities on the surrounding hills. Later, the Greeks and then the Romans used the harbour as a stopover en route to their settlements around the Western Mediterranean as the bay of Villefranche is one of the deepest natural harbours of any port in the Mediterranean Sea, making it a safe and popular anchorage, for large ships from easterly winds.
Wishing you a venturesome Sunday!
Landwasser Viaduct, Switzerland

Built in 1902, the Landwasser Viaduct is a single six-arched curved limestone railway viaduct that spans the Landwasser, a river, between Schimitten and Filisur.
