The sound of the waves and the sea breeze create a calm, refreshing atmosphere. It’s the perfect place to enjoy the Riviera lifestyle and stunning coastal views.
The Old Nice and The local cooking – What to see in Nice
Visiting Old Nice (Vieux-Nice) is a journey into the city’s vibrant history and Mediterranean spirit. Its narrow streets are filled with colorful buildings, small shops, and lively cafés. The Sainte-Réparate Cathedral, with its beautiful baroque façade and richly decorated interior, stands as a major landmark. As you explore, take time to enjoy local specialties such as socca, a crispy chickpea pancake, and pissaladière, a savory onion tart. These traditional foods reflect Nice’s strong culinary identity. Continue your walk to Cours Saleya, famous for its flower and food markets bursting with color and fragrance. The atmosphere there is lively and welcoming. Nearby, Place Masséna impresses with its grand architecture and striking red buildings. The contrast between old streets and modern spaces is captivating. Together, these areas reveal the authentic soul of Nice.
The Musée Marc Chagall in Cimiez

The museum houses one of the world’s largest collections of works by Marc Chagall, focused on biblical themes. His vibrant colors and dreamlike scenes create a unique atmosphere.
