Its famous « Baie des Anges », its animated city centre with its pedestrian shopping areas, its old city with its quaint narrow streets, colourful market places and small crafts shops all invite you to discover them.

Like all major international cities, Nice brings together in the city centre over fifty prestigious fashion names, in an area called the «Golden Square» where creation fins its expression and fashion is elegant and refined. Leather-goods, clothing, jewellery, gifts, design, perfume, confectionery, local specialities …

Legacies of the past, jealously preserved, the sumptuous palaces of « Belle Époque » or « Art Deco of the 30s » architecture are the pride of the niçois and offer to visitors all the luxury and refinement of legendary high places combined with the elegance of new solutions of contemporary design. Spa, Jacuzzi, Hammam, Beauty and massage institutes are favourite places which allow each individual to vary pleasures according to their wishes. And as early as April, to swim in an outdoor swimming-pool in the French Riviera sun or to relax in the solarium represent real moments of well-being.

The most famous restaurants offer pride of place to sun-drenched recipes featuring olive oil and aromatic plants such as rosemary, thyme or basil. In Nice, culinary traditions now figure alongside inventive and innovative cuisine by famous chefs, real designers in gastronomy. The privilege of eating at one of the best tables in France is an experience which takes gourmets on a whirlwind of delicacies and pleasure.

And when the evening comes, entertainment possibilities are both numerous and original. A cocktail at a piano-bar, an evening at the disco, a performance at the Opera or a dinner-show at the Cabaret or at the Casino, opportunities are endless.
