Queen of the French Riviera, Nice successfully mixes cosmopolitan chic with a welcoming climate in the most spectacular setting. Offering the unusual combination of the lively city feel with the languid atmosphere of a Mediterranean resort, this is an ideal destination for an out of season break.Nice itself, with its wonderful sweeping sea front, is the principal sight and the Promenade des Anglais offers a delightful walk. In Nice's Old Town, there are examples of architecture from the 15th century onwards and the Musee Matisse are a must for art lovers. Only a short drive along the coast is exclusive Monte Carlo. Avenue Jean Medecin is the main street with major department stores such as Galeries Lafayette.
