MY FAVORITES !
on the French Riviera
Nice
I invite you to immerse yourself in the lively atmosphere of Vieux Nice , eat a slice of socca (typical dish of Nice), in the old streets, photograph the beautiful colors of the bustling Cours Saleya market, visit the Gésu church, a 17th century baroque church, passing through Place Rossetti, then ending the evening in the trendy area of Place Garibaldi and Bonaparte Street... Everything is within walking distance...
​
Visit the Cote d'Azur Observatory (historic site of the seventeenth century)! Once there, allow yourself to be taken away by the majestic beauty of the site and watch the dome built by... Gustave Eiffel! Guided tours. The site offers an outstanding panorama of the Bay of Angels and the city of Nice, capital of the French Riviera.
​
SEA SIDE
Cannes : Le Suquet , an old neighborhood in the west of Cannes: you will forget that you are in Cannes. You will find yourself in the atmosphere of a lovely little Provencal village, you can visit the museum and, from the square, make magnificent photos of the bay of Cannes and the Lérins Islands. Accessible on foot from the Old Port.

At sunset, stroll along the coast of Théoule-sur-Mer and admire the colours of the red porphyric cliffs plunging into the Mediterranean... Then sit on the terrace of a bar on the port to sip a glass of Prosecco. And why not spend the day beforehand, away from the crowds, in the creeks of Trayas ...?
