Hallo, nice

The Greeks and Romans did it, as did rich lords, film stars, artists, and thousands of tourists. They were just going to pass by but instead remained in Nice and along the Riviera. Some for just a few weeks, others for months and years. They were too captivated by the light, enchanted by the scents, and charmed by the taste of olives and wine. Additionally, a Nice Nouveau has evolved – a sassy Mediterranean metropolis with pulsating nightlife, modern hotels, and daring art galleries. All this with a chance to dabble their toes in a turquoise sea.

Marc Chagall National Museum

The Belarusian-born master painter, Marc Chagall, is one of the Riviera’s many adopted children. The museum was built in consultation with the artistic genius himself, on the theme of Biblical art. The museum has regularly recurring exhibitions of Jewish art.

Place Rossetti

After strolling around in Nice, you might come to the point in which you'd like only to sit down and enjoy the beautiful surroundings. Place Rossetti is the perfect destination to do just that: find a place in the shade, buy an ice-cream and relax. It's a charming and vibrant pedestrian square in the heart of Nice's historic Old Town. The focal point of the square is the stunning baroque-style cathedral, Cathédrale Sainte-Réparate, which boasts a beautiful façade and impressive bell tower.

Lérins Islands

The islands of L’île Sainte-Marguerite and L’île Saint-Honorat are two beautiful getaways from the city of Cannes. Just a boat ride away from the harbour, behind the palatial cinema, you can travel to these islands which are fifteen and thirty minutes respectively away from Cannes. L’île Sainte-Marguerite used to be a prison island, where a mysterious, masked prisoner was held in the 17th-century. The peaceful, flower-decked island of Saint-Honorat houses a monastery.
