Nice :
It is the British aristocrats of the 18th century, followed, today, by the wealthy Russians, that made Nice the most fashionable seaside resort of the French Riviera. From its green hills, Nice contemplates the blue of the Mediterranean since two thousand years and its peculiar history is mixing an unsuspected heritage of Roman remains, Baroque architecture, the Belle Epoque and stylish Contemporary buildings. A cosmopolitan city which, every winter, explodes during its world recognized carnival. To discover‌
