Sun-drenched beaches, al fresco restaurants, open-air markets, and dozens of museums, not to mention lots of sunny weather, make this city on the Riviera a must for both sun worshippers and those looking to experience the charm of southern France. While much of Nice dates back to medieval times, the city is thriving with an active nightlife scene and the Promenade des Anglais, a bustling walkway running along the Mediterranean. Visitors will find plenty of culture throughout the city, from museums to the monastery, plus ancient Roman baths and newer attractions in the Arenas area. And what would a trip to any French city be without food? From the lively Cours Saleya to the restaurants and pubs catering to every taste, travelers will certainly not be left wanting when they hit the culinary delights tucked throughout the city.
