NICE

Nice has always stood out for its joie de vivre and multiculturalism, the founding values of a city that has been through a lot in its history, but each time returning to shine more than before. Therefore, international tourism is the main resource of the area, with the Promenade des Anglais, an ideal place for walking, jogging and relaxing by the sea, as its flagship. But woe to consider Nice only a fashionable and seaside resort.

The old town, the port, the churches, the museums and the surrounding hills give back the image of a city with a thousand-year history, proudly aware of its uniqueness in the French and European panorama.There is hardly a magazine, website or travel blog that does not recommend starting your visit to Nice from its historic center. The reason is obvious: it is in the old part (Veille ville) of the city that the “genius loci” of Nice lives. The first thing that catches the eye of the attentive visitor is the similarity with the alleys of Genoa. Narrow and winding alleys, colorful houses and a swarm of varied humanity scattered among typical shops, restaurants, bars, boutiques and municipal markets.

The most famous is undoubtedly the flower market which takes place from Tuesday to Sunday on Corso Saleya (Monday is for the antiques market). But there is not only this. The historic center of Nice is a small baroque jewel, whose most important testimony is represented by the Cathedral of Santa Reparata (Piazza Rossetti) seat of the city bishopric and historical monument of France.
