Best Things to do in Nice

1- Walk along the Promenade des Anglais

The Promenade des Anglais is a world-famous promenade in the city of Nice, France.
Lining the Mediterranean Sea, the promenade is a popular spot for locals and tourists alike to take a walk, enjoy the views, and relax.

The name “Promenade des Anglais” comes from the fact that it was originally built by Englishmen in the early 19th century. These days, it’s one of the most famous landmarks in Nice.
