Nice offers a thousand delights and surprises for all those who really get to know it : from the Sardinian neighbourhoods around the port to the Victorian avenues of Cimiez, from the breath-taking panorama at the top of Mont-Boron to the narrow, picturesque streets of the Old town, from the footpaths that link up the hills, to casual strolls around de-luxe boutiques in the town's pedestrian areas.
Nice benefits from an exceptionnal micro-climate which has contribuate to its worldwide renown for almost 200 years. A town that faces the sea, it is protected from the wind, first by its hills and second by the Estérel mountains to the west, and the north-western barrier comprised of the Mercantour Alps.
