Nice & The French Riviera
Nice attracts visitors from all over the world. The playground of the rich and famous.
Few spots epitomise Nice or, in fact, the joie de vivre of the French Riviera in general more than the inviting Promenade des Anglais.
It is always bustling with humanity. There are tourists relaxing in the royal blue chairs lining the shore. There are locals roller blading, biking or jogging along it. Vendors sell crepes and drinks on it.
Splurge on a chaise lounge, and let waiters bring you cocktails and appetizers. The pebble beach in Nice stretches for miles.
Take a double decker bus tour, the tour lasts for just over an hour stopping at 11 stops and runs all year. From Promenade des Anglais, it departs every 30 minutes in the high season and every hour in the low season.
Nice Carnival in February is the largest carnival in the world, with many floats it is quite a spectacle.
Check out the "Free Riviera Pass" while in Nice for entrance to many sights in the city.
The main outdoor market in Nice, Marche aux Fleurs is in the old city Vieux Nice near the water. An amazing selection of fresh fruits, vegetables and flowers are available. A great place to eat for a few euros. Cheeses, breads, crepes what more could one wish for?
There is some great shopping to be had in Nice, the most famous department store is Galeries LaFayette in the city centre.
There is exciting nightlife in Nice and some amazing restaurants.
Much of the architecture in Nice is art-deco. The Mattise Museum is located Nice.

Luc Salsedo Restaurant, Nice
In Nice we found this small but very nice restaurant, the foie gras was to die for and the veal was just scrumptious. Beautifully presented, tasty, good portions and fresh. The dessert French toast with cinnamon apple and toffee ice cream was like no other french toast I have ever tasted. We had dinner twice in Luc Salsedo it was fab, food divine, staff were brilliant. |
