Attractions in Nice
Exclusivity, luxury, beautiful hotels, cars, guests from the richest circles, such epithets best describe Nice, located on the Cote d'Azur. Its advantageous position and French charm have led to the fact that over the years it has grown to the rank of one of the best resorts not only in Europe but also in the world.
Promenade of the English
Having been in Nice, you can not refuse to walk along the beach, which is about 7 kilometers long. The embankment was founded in the 19th century, then work began on its creation and enrichment. It got its name from the British who settled here then, after which there were numerous houses and mansions stretching along the embankment. On the one hand, the blue sea, on the other - villas, mansions, hotels, and between them palm trees, which line the entire embankment.
It is worth walking along it at the moment of sunrise, and in the afternoon turn off the promenade into the Jardin Albert park, where you can find a respite from the heat.
Castle on the Hill
A long time ago, back in the 13th century, there was a castle in Nice, and even earlier a fortress. Unfortunately, none of the buildings have survived to this day. Only ruins remain, called La Colline du Chateau, which offers a breathtaking view of the entire city. It is worth climbing the hill, seeing the remains of history, as well as inspecting the flower garden prepared for tourists. A special place is occupied by a waterfall located on a hill, created as an additional attraction, which was so liked by locals and tourists that it is currently a landmark in the area. The beautiful view and soothing noise bring a lot of pleasure, like staying in the best hotel.
Museum of Fine Arts
There are more than 100 museums in Nice, so the entire stay would not be enough to see everything. But it is worth going to at least one, the Museum of Fine Arts, which is a must for any tourist who has the opportunity to visit the city. Beauty is followed here from the entrance, through all the halls. The building itself is unique and elegant. The museum was built 200 years ago for a Ukrainian princess, and now in its chambers, instead of princesses, there are works of art - paintings and sculptures. First of all, the works of the Impressionists and Post-Impressionists are very popular. Many of them visited Nice in the past and created their paintings on its territory.
Cuisine of Nice
Each settlement associated with tourism and like any city in France, Nice has its own culinary delights.
On the one hand, the cuisine of Nice resembles Provence, but because of the port of Nice, there are impurities of distant worlds here. For cooking, olive oil, seafood, vegetables are used, and regional specialties, which are often ordered by visitors from different parts of the world and invitations, are Sokka pancakes and pizza. Sokka is especially interesting because it looks like a big, fragile pancake.
