Nice is a wealthy city, nestled at the foot of the snow-covered Alps and the French Riviera, whose microclimate ignores the winter, Nice has all the characteristics of paradise: 

 

Its blue sea decorated with the elegant Promenade des Anglais.

 

Its Old-Nice with its orange, Italian and baroque palette, where you can still guess the carnival balls of the Renaissance.

 

Its extravagant villas and palaces of the Belle Époque, which can be found along the hill of Cimiez and in the districts of Carabacel or Les Baumettes.

 

Its port anchored in a rocky basin, witness of a fishing past... 

 

And everywhere, this exotic vegetation that abounds in the gardens, appears in the courtyards and adorns parks and flowerbeds.

 

No one should be surprised by this Nice art of living, with its markets full of local fruit and vegetables, its cuisine with the scent of the Mediterranean, and its inspired artists that can be admired in museums, art galleries, or on the esplanades of Place Garibaldi. 

 

An art of living that invites you to forget the passing of time, on the terrace of a local bar or a luxury café...

However, Nice the dynamic also intends to defy the too languorous clichés a few meters from the beaches abounds, insolent, the urban effervescence, as for example on the Avenue Jean Médecin and Place Masséna. 

 

Still shy but real, student life is asserting itself with its trendy bars, while cultural and gastronomic centres of the future such as the Gare du Sud are flourishing and the city is embarking on exemplary green projects, which will make it ... a new Eden.
