Places you won’t want to miss!
Some of the city’s already emblematic landmarks are now part of UNESCO’s World Heritage List. Located in six different parts of the city, they are truly must-sees during your stay.
The Castle Hill
Castle Hill offers breathtaking views over the entire Baie des Anges. With its Bellanda Tower and fountain, the hill is sure to fill you with amazement. This green setting in the heart of the city is the perfect place to recharge your batteries.
Promenade des Ponchettes
Stroll along the former Promenade des Ponchettes, now used by restaurateurs as a large terrace where you can eat right next to the sea.
Place Masséna
The inevitable Place Masséna is an absolute must: (re)visit it and admire its magnificent Fontaine du Soleil surrounded by its recognizable red facades.
Musée Masséna and Musée des Beaux-Arts
The Musée Masséna and Musée des Beaux-Arts were once villas built for vacationers. Come and succumb to the charms of their architecture, representative of that era.
Saint Nicholas Orthodox Cathedral
Admire the astonishing Saint-Nicolas Orthodox Cathedral, a symbol of the mass arrival of Russian vacationers in Nice. Its architecture will leave you speechless!
