Nestled along the sparkling French Riviera, Nice is the epitome of summer bliss. The Promenade des Anglais, a stunning coastal walkway, is perfect for leisurely strolls while soaking in panoramic views of the azure Mediterranean. The old town, or Vieux Nice, charms visitors with its pastel-colored facades, bustling markets like Cours Saleya, and authentic Provençal eateries.
During my visit, I spent hours lounging on the pebbled beaches, with the sea breeze and vibrant atmosphere creating a sense of tranquility. A climb up Castle Hill rewarded me with breathtaking views of the city and harbor, and the museums, like Musée Matisse, offered a cultural escape from the sun.
With its relaxed vibe, easy access to nearby gems like Monaco and Cannes, and its blend of history, art, and nature, Nice is the perfect summer getaway in Southern France. The city’s efficient tram and bus system make exploring convenient and enjoyable.
