Why visit Nice?

Nice is defined by the shimmering crescent of the Baie des Anges and the sun-drenched chaos of the Cours Saleya market, where stalls overflow with local socca—a golden, chickpea flour pancake crisp from the wood-fired oven. Beyond the glitz of the Promenade des Anglais, the Old Town, or Vieux Nice, reveals a labyrinth of ochre-washed buildings and winding alleys that lead to the baroque grandeur of the Cathédrale Sainte-Réparate. Hikers ascend the Colline du Château for panoramic views over the terracotta rooftops, while art enthusiasts spend hours beneath the light-filled vaults of the Musée Matisse, which houses a definitive collection of the master’s works on the scenic Cimiez Hill.

Evenings here are best spent indulging in a pichade, a local onion tart, paired with a glass of chilled rosé from the nearby Bellet vineyards. For a change of pace, the walk to the Port Lympia district offers a view of classic Mediterranean caïques bobbing against the backdrop of super-yachts. Whether browsing the flower markets or retreating to the elegant Place Masséna with its distinctive black-and-white tiling, the city retains a palpable sense of historical gravity and sensory delight. It remains the undisputed cultural anchor of the Côte d’Azur, balancing the effortless allure of its pebbled coastline with deep, centuries-old traditions.
