Unusual activities, nature in the city, museums, architectural gems and fine dining: the C\u00f4te d&#8217;Azur capital is known first and foremost for its idyllic location on the C\u00f4te d&#8217;Azur. Its sunny climate and its azure blue beaches attracted us immediately. Its picturesque old town, or &#8220;Vieux Nice&#8221;, is full of narrow streets where we enjoyed getting lost, colorful buildings and lively markets. The Italian and antique influences on some of the buildings in this district offer an authentic atmosphere and a glimpse of local history and culture.<\/p>\n\n<p>And did you know that Nice is a<a href=\"https:\/\/whc.unesco.org\/fr\/list\/1635\/documents\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">UNESCO<\/a> World Heritage Site as a &#8220;Riviera winter resort&#8221;?<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Provence-Lovers\/Nice\/n-wSXLpq\/Ville\/i-TVf2rX7\/0\/FJSsWr92R7vqXj2bnfXF8q9fkRWP5wxGmNKxF6r6T\/L\/quartier-mont-boron-port-nice-L.jpg\" alt=\"City of Nice\"\/><\/figure>\n\n<p>Nice is also renowned for its artistic heritage and cultural offerings, and we enjoyed the many museums and the emphasis on modern and contemporary art.

Just a few more steps and you&#8217;ll reach your destination: the Rauba Capeu sundial pier, with its panoramic view over the Baie des Anges. Designed by astronomer Bernard Milet in 1981, this sundial was installed on the day of the summer solstice, or longest day of the year.

We suggest you continue your morning stroll in a 19-hectare park overlooking the Baie des Anges and just a stone&#8217;s throw from the old town and port!

The park is also home to a cemetery and the archaeological ruins of a 12th-century castle. Stop off for a picnic, let the kids play on the playground or simply admire the breathtaking view. The ochre and red roofs typical of the C\u00f4te d&#8217;Azur capital, with the mountains and sea in the background, form a picture worthy of a painter!<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Provence-Lovers\/Nice\/n-wSXLpq\/Colline-du-Ch%C3%A2teau\/i-8sZRXMv\/1\/0caa2c59\/L\/parc-colline-chateau-nice-jean-klissak-L.jpg\" alt=\"Parc de la Colline du Ch&#xE2;teau, Nice\"\/><\/figure>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Day 1 &#8211; Morning: stroll around Port Lympia<\/h3>\n\n<p>The Port Lympia district is one of Nice&#8217;s liveliest spots, with its marina and numerous restaurants.

Standing 50m high, it was originally installed in the 13th century. It was completely rebuilt in the 18th century to serve as a bell tower for the former Franciscan convent, of which only vestiges remain today. To this day, the tower is well preserved and has undergone several restoration works.<br\/>This is one of the most beautiful Baroque sites to visit in Nice. The Tour Saint-Fran\u00e7ois has been listed as a historic monument since 1993.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Provence-Lovers\/Nice\/Monuments\/n-mXC7Dn\/Tour-Saint-Fran%C3%A7ois\/i-3rfTVwq\/0\/ed8493ee\/L\/tour-saint-francois-nice-3-L.jpg\" alt=\"Saint-Fran&#xE7;ois Tower in Nice\"\/><\/figure>\n\n<p>As soon as you arrive in front of the Tour Saint-Fran\u00e7ois, you&#8217;ll notice the details that reveal the influence of the Baroque architectural style born in post-Renaissance Italy. On the last part of the tower, where the clock is located, take time to admire the friezes and ornamentation reminiscent of Baroque monuments in Rome, Florence or Turin. The bell tower was built in the 18th century and acquired by the commune in 1798 after the French Revolution, followed by the desertion of the Franciscan convent.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Provence-Lovers\/Nice\/Monuments\/n-mXC7Dn\/Tour-Saint-Fran%C3%A7ois\/i-LpGF3tD\/0\/c23dbc39\/L\/tour-saint-franc%CC%A7ois-nice-L.jpg\" alt=\"Saint-Fran&#xE7;ois Tower in Nice\"\/><\/figure>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Day 2 &#8211; Morning: Take a break at the Caf\u00e9s &#8220;Indien&#8221; roastery<\/h3>\n\n<p>As we began our morning stroll through Vieux Nice, we passed <a href=\"https:\/\/provencelovers.fr\/en\/visiter-torrefacteur-cafes-indien-vieux-nice\/\" type=\"post\" id=\"12253\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">this roaster<\/a> whose name intrigued us.

This famous square with its yellow facades, built in the 18th century, is dedicated to Giuseppe Garibaldi, the republican and Italian general born in Nice, who unified Italy in the 19th century. In the center, you&#8217;ll see a stone statue of this figure from Italian and Nice history, with the former senate behind it. Today, it&#8217;s one of the city&#8217;s central squares, where the atmosphere is warm and lively.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Provence-Lovers\/Nice\/n-wSXLpq\/Place-Garibaldi\/i-ZqW3xfq\/0\/086f06f8\/L\/place-garibaldi-nice-L.jpg\" alt=\"Place Garibaldi, Nice\"\/><\/figure>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Day 2 &#8211; Noon: Italian lunch<\/h3>\n\n<p>Did you know that Nice has only been part of France since 1860?

In our opinion, this is a must-see museum in Nice.<br\/>The visit is organized in several stages, but the direction is not imposed, so you&#8217;re free to choose which collection to begin and end your tour with:<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>You can climb to the top floor of the building to <strong>enjoy the museum&#8217;s rooftop terrace<\/strong>, with its breathtaking panoramic view of the city and <em>in situ<\/em> temporary exhibitions.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Provence-Lovers\/Nice\/Mus%C3%A9es\/n-hb4qTV\/Mus%C3%A9e-dArt-Moderne-et-dArt-Contemporain-MAMAC\/i-LtcTxmV\/0\/7d7b4bc8\/L\/musee-art-mamac-nice-145-L.jpg\" alt=\"MAMAC Museum in Nice\"\/><\/figure>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Then head for the lower floors. One of our favorite sections:<strong> the one devoted to Niki de Saint Phalle and her daring works<\/strong>. You won&#8217;t be disappointed, but immersed in a fantastic world. His famous &#8220;Nanas&#8221; reveal his militant spirit, creativity and boundless imagination.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Provence-Lovers\/Nice\/Mus%C3%A9es\/n-hb4qTV\/Mus%C3%A9e-dArt-Moderne-et-dArt-Contemporain-MAMAC\/i-CfZrWFS\/0\/de4fefa5\/L\/musee-art-mamac-nice-246-L.jpg\" alt=\"MAMAC Museum in Nice (Niki de Saint Phalle)\"\/><\/figure>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Finally, the section devoted to Yves Klein<\/strong> is truly captivating.

The 1st floor, 5th floor terrace and gallery are reserved for temporary exhibitions. This museum is included with the Museum Pass.<\/p>\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-text-color has-alpha-channel-opacity has-background is-style-wide\" style=\"background-color:#131212;color:#131212\"\/>\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/provencelovers.fr\/en\/museum-art-mamac-nice\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Discover our complete article on the MAMAC Museum in Nice<\/a><\/p>\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-text-color has-alpha-channel-opacity has-background is-style-wide\" style=\"background-color:#131212;color:#131212\"\/>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Day 2 &#8211; Evening: dinner at a confidential Michelin-starred restaurant<\/h3>\n\n<p>Jan Hendrik van der Westhuizen invites us to <a href=\"https:\/\/provencelovers.fr\/en\/restaurant-jan-nice-review\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Restaurant JAN<\/a> in this confidential location to savor inventive cuisine just a stone&#8217;s throw from Port Lympia. To share memories of his childhood, the chef revisits South African specialties, where he is originally from, and marries them with French gastronomic savoir-faire. Using local produce from Provence and South Africa, the menu takes the senses on a journey. Each dish is a work of culinary art, presented and created with quality ingredients, subtle flavors, some of them surprising.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Provence-Lovers\/Nice\/Restaurants\/n-wMjggh\/Restaurant-Jan\/i-MrTKdHR\/1\/62799257\/L\/Restaurant-Jan-Nice-070-L.jpg\" alt=\"Entrance to JAN's Michelin-starred restaurant in Nice\"\/><\/figure>\n\n<p>He&#8217;s an artistic culinary director, even a chemist in his approach, who plunges us into his universe and shares his sources of inspiration. The capital of the C\u00f4te d&#8217;Azur is certainly one of them, as we found some of Nice&#8217;s specialties throughout the dishes. The chef&#8217;s work is almost like that of a chemist, the fruit of in-depth, even scientific research to find the right dosage, the right combination of textures and flavors in the mouth. The classic 7-course menu and the signature 8-course menu feature dishes that tell a story for your taste buds. Our dinner was punctuated by a gentle waltz of plates and many surprises from the chef, who was very attentive throughout the evening.<br\/>The sommelier gave us excellent advice on food and wine pairing to help us choose between the many French, South African, Corsican and Italian wines.<br\/>With its blend of South African traditions and French gastronomy, this will be an evening you won&#8217;t soon forget!<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Provence-Lovers\/Nice\/Restaurants\/n-wMjggh\/Restaurant-Jan\/i-MpGbqfN\/1\/7324674d\/L\/Restaurant-Jan-Nice-054-L.jpg\" alt=\"Entrance to JAN's Michelin-starred restaurant in Nice\"\/><\/figure>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Day 3 &#8211; Morning: start with the Basilica of Notre-Dame de l&#8217;Assomption<\/h3>\n\n<p>Built in the 2nd half of the 19th century and located in the Jean M\u00e9decin shopping district, it is the largest religious building in Nice.

We were fascinated by the details of traditional Russian architecture: moldings, friezes, stained glass windows, motifs, colors both inside and out.

On the menu are some fifty red, white and ros\u00e9 wines from France&#8217;s major wine-growing regions. For our part, we fell for the octopus dish and the creamy homemade madeleines for dessert. Before that, warm and tender homemade black olive bread was served with a rather original appetizer.

d&#8217;Arc<\/h3>\n\n<p>Visiting the Cimiez-Lib\u00e9ration district a little further uptown in Nice, we came across the Church of Sainte-Jeanne d&#8217;Arc and its atypical architecture. Built by architect Jacques Droz in the 1930s, its style is more or less futuristic, in reinforced concrete with several egg-shaped white domes. This Catholic church is dedicated to Joan of Arc, a 15th-century historical figure.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Provence-Lovers\/Nice\/Monuments\/n-mXC7Dn\/%C3%89glise-Sainte-Jeanne-dArc\/i-kqgm36w\/0\/0e1be31d\/L\/eglise-sainte-jeanne-d-arc-nice-1-L.jpg\" alt=\"Nice's &#xC9;glise Sainte Jeanne d'Arc in Art Nouveau style\"\/><\/figure>\n\n<p>Inside, we discovered several statues, paintings and frescoes in a more modern and original style than we&#8217;re used to seeing in religious buildings.

A real curiosity, as atypical in its architecture as in its interior design and layout. Frescoes, icons and statues reflect the influence of Art Nouveau in this impressive building.<\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Day 4 &#8211; Morning: Marc Chagall National Museum<\/h3>\n\n<p>It is one of the few museums created during the artist&#8217;s lifetime. You&#8217;ll discover the great diversity and richness of his work, with drawings, sculptures, paintings, mosaics, stained glass and tapestries. Admire the <em>Biblical Message<\/em> cycle, a masterpiece in 17 paintings. The first 12 illustrate &#8220;Genesis and Exodus&#8221;, and the other 5 the &#8220;Song of Songs&#8221;. You can also enjoy a stroll through the museum&#8217;s garden.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Provence-Lovers\/Nice\/Mus&#xE9;es\/n-hb4qTV\/Mus&#xE9;e-Chagall\/i-fGHLfSH\/0\/5Zqw3h472mMwCDBqkMhh47kdBqJtZPkhhPmg44Q5\/L\/musee-chagall-cimiez-nice-L.jpg\" alt=\"Chagall Museum in Nice\"\/><\/figure>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Day 4 &#8211; Noon: lunch in the Cimiez district<\/h3>\n\n<p>Take a lunch break in the Cimiez district. A residential area on a hillside in Nice, we enjoyed panoramic views over the city and the Mediterranean. Known for its elegant villas, extensive gardens and museums, Cimiez is also appreciated for its green spaces, fine dining and shady walkways.

We also learned that the hill of Cimiez is the ancient city of <em>Cemenelum<\/em>, capital of the Alpes Maritimes region. So, are you ready to go back in time?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Provence-Lovers\/Nice\/Mus%C3%A9es\/n-hb4qTV\/Mus%C3%A9e-dArch%C3%A9ologie\/i-LqNxxJr\/1\/a5146ab8\/L\/musee-archeologie-nice-2-L.jpg\" alt=\"Nice Museum of Archaeology\"\/><\/figure>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Franciscan monastery of Cimiez<\/strong>: do you know the Franciscan church and cemetery in Nice&#8217;s Cimiez district? It&#8217;s a rather symbolic place in the city, dating back to the 8th century. Inside the church, we had the chance to admire works by Italian Renaissance painter Louis Br\u00e9a. As well as being a cultural center, the neo-Gothic Monast\u00e8re de Cimiez is also a place of worship and contemplation. Indeed, many great figures of art are buried in its cemetery, including Raoul Dufy and Henri Matisse. Admission is free.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Provence-Lovers\/Nice\/Mus%C3%A9es\/n-hb4qTV\/Mus%C3%A9e-franciscain-de-Cimiez\/i-5NGpBh9\/0\/dbd1bebf\/L\/eglise-musee-monastere-franciscain-cimiez-nice-L.jpg\" alt=\"Franciscan Monastery of Nice Cimiez\"\/><\/figure>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Day 5 &#8211; Morning: stroll around Port Lympia<\/h3>\n\n<p>The Port Lympia district is one of Nice&#8217;s liveliest spots, with its marina and numerous restaurants. Here you can admire the magnificent yachts and sailing boats docked in the port. Take a deep breath to fill your lungs with sea air and enjoy panoramic views of the Mediterranean. In fact, if you pass through the Parc de la Colline du Ch\u00e2teau mentioned earlier, you&#8217;ll have a view of Port Lympia.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Provence-Lovers\/Nice\/n-wSXLpq\/Mont-Boron-Fort-Alban\/i-6pWDVxB\/0\/CqPCP28rjL2jxTTq9m7ZHX4QP9LLhB5Msp7ZWWr4V\/L\/mont-boron-fort-alban-nice-L.jpg\" alt=\"View of the port from Mont Boron, Nice\"\/><\/figure>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span id=\"16h-17h30_pause_nature_dans_le_Parc_du_Mont_Boron_et_du_Fort_Alban\" style=\"box-sizing: inherit;\">Day 5 &#8211; Morning: Nature break in the Mont Boron and Fort Alban Park<\/span><\/h3>\n\n<p>Built during the Renaissance, the Fort du Mont Alban is quite spectacular! We felt very small in front of this imposing stone building that has stood the test of time. This fort dominates the entire C\u00f4te d&#8217;Azur. The panorama from the monument&#8217;s terrace really dazzled us. Just 2 steps from the Mont Boron hill, surrounded by a charming forest, you&#8217;ll find a picnic area near the fort for a gourmet break or simply to relax during the walk.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Provence-Lovers\/Nice\/n-wSXLpq\/Mont-Boron-Fort-Alban\/i-4kxczRc\/0\/DJ9tf76GgfTwMsm37HCr6HwWTSGpv3pJkBV2tn4tg\/L\/mont-boron-fort-alban-nice-2-L.jpg\" alt=\"View of Nice from Mont Boron\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">View of Nice from Mont Boron<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Day 5 &#8211; Noon: lunch at Restaurant Peixes in the port district<\/h3>\n\n<p>Crossing Place Garibaldi, in a pedestrian alley at the back, we passed Restaurant Peixes. We were immediately drawn to its bright white and royal blue decor. And this menu, which combines Mediterranean and South American flavors to sublimate and modernize seafood, immediately appealed to us. On the restaurant&#8217;s sunny terrace overlooking Rue Bonaparte, we enjoyed, among other things: simply exquisite scallop ceviche with tasty vegetables, marinated octopus and homemade lemonade!  <\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Provence-Lovers\/Nice\/Restaurants\/n-wMjggh\/Restaurant-Peixes\/i-48BNJ3C\/1\/c716d033\/L\/Restaurant-Peixes-Nice-04-L.jpg\" alt=\"Restaurant Peixes in Nice\"\/><\/figure>\n\n<p>If you love seafood in a colorful, soothing and bright setting, go for it!

In fact, it is installed on the very site of the excavation that bears its name and which revealed the way of life of the 1st inhabitants of Nice nearly 400 millennia ago! A place not to be missed if, like us, you love archaeology and relics.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Provence-Lovers\/Nice\/Mus%C3%A9es\/n-hb4qTV\/Mus%C3%A9e-Terra-Amata-Pr%C3%A9histoire\/i-rLFS3kr\/0\/e4e9eea5\/L\/musee-terra-amata-prehistoire-nice-L.jpg\" alt=\"Terra Amata Museum in Nice\"\/><\/figure>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Day 5 &#8211; Afternoon: meditation at St Rita&#8217;s Church<\/h3>\n\n<p>Patron saint of lost and desperate causes, Saint Rita lived in the 14th century. We were charmed by the calm and serenity of <a href=\"https:\/\/provencelovers.fr\/en\/visit-church-annunciation-sainte-rita-nice\/\" type=\"post\" id=\"11570\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">this church<\/a> in Vieux Nice, also known as \u00c9glise de l&#8217;Annonciation. The facade of the monument is rather sober, while the interior is adorned with several paintings and moldings, which we took the time to discover. Take the Saint Erasmus chapel below, for example: 2 canvases cover the walls, surrounded by marble columns with carved ends. If you&#8217;re passing through Vieux Nice, this church is well worth a visit!<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Provence-Lovers\/Nice\/Monuments\/n-mXC7Dn\/%C3%89glise-Sainte-Rita\/i-Q6wS6tG\/0\/894bcfc0\/L\/eglise-sainte-rita-nice-1-L.jpg\" alt=\"Saint Erasmus chapel at Sainte-Rita church, Nice\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Saint Erasmus chapel at Sainte-Rita church, Nice<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Day 5 &#8211; Afternoon: enjoy the beaches of Nice<\/h3>\n\n<p>Nice boasts <a href=\"https:\/\/provencelovers.fr\/en\/best-beaches-nice\/\" type=\"post\" id=\"11402\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">several magnificent beaches<\/a> along its coastline.

In the center, you can see the stone statue of him with the ancient senate behind it.

In the early 19th century, Nice architect Richard Scoffier redesigned the fa\u00e7ade and rebuilt the entrance hall and grand staircase. You can visit this building during the Heritage Days.

An iconic Nice landmark in Yitzhak Rabin Square, we loved the illustrations, moldings and colorful details on this century-old model! Horses, carriages and turnstiles dress up this beautiful machine on the square. And yes, we climbed on it to fall back into childhood! We were the only adults, but we enjoyed this convivial moment with musical background.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Provence-Lovers\/Nice\/n-wSXLpq\/Ville\/i-N95SWwz\/0\/75e9df3d\/L\/manege-1900-nice-2-L.jpg\" alt=\"Carousel from the 1900s in Nice\"\/><\/figure>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A ride on the Nice tourist train<\/h3>\n\n<p>Would you like to visit Nice from the comfort of a small electric train that takes you around the city?
