Welcome to the Promenade des Anglais, a stunning waterfront boulevard that has been a symbol of Nice since the 18th century. Originally built by English aristocrats who flocked here for its mild climate, this iconic promenade is not only significant for its breathtaking views of the Mediterranean but also as a vibrant hub where locals and tourists alike gather to enjoy leisurely strolls and lively events. As you walk along, take note of the unique blue chairs known as "Les Cagnard," which invite you to sit back and soak in the beauty around you.
Next, we ascend Castle Hill (Colline du Château), an ancient fortress site that offers panoramic views over Nice's picturesque coastline. This historic landmark played a crucial role in defending the city from invaders until it was dismantled in 1706; today, it's celebrated for its lush gardens and cascading waterfalls that provide visitors with both tranquility and awe-inspiring vistas.
