Olive tree in Cargèse

On our way from Ota to Ajaccio, we stopped at the small city of Cargèse, an ancient Greek settlement on the island of Corsica. In one part of the village, very close to the coast, there are two churches facing each other. One of them is a catholic church, the other one is an orthodox church. Both are almost identical in size and each of them also has a small forecourt, which is lined with olive trees.
