The Panier

Reviewed By Ilmar1 - Perth, Australia

The one unique thing about this area which makes it worth visiting is the quality of the street art (or graffiti) which adds a very colourful dimension to the narrow streets. Virtually nothing was open when we visited except a few shops selling mass produced souvenirs, so there was nothing to do but take photos. I was told this was because it was no longer tourist season (which explained the almost deserted streets) and the december rush had yet to begin. Take an hour to walk slowly around and admire the views. It is worth it.

Old Town

This historic part of Nice feels like a medieval village with narrow streets curving between old buildings with red-tile roofs, small restaurants and open-markets.

Reviewed By NfN270644 - Great Yarmouth, United Kingdom

Large Old Town area incorporating a wonderful flower market, small shops in narrow, historic winding alleys and streets selling anything and everything, thoroughly enjoyable time with great cafes/restaurants full of locals enjoying coffee, snacks and meals.

Place Rossetti

Reviewed By paultU1116NU

Place Rossetti in the heart of the Old Town is a great place to stop if you have been wandering round the narrow lanes and alleyways of Nice, it offers a beautiful view of the Cathedral Sainte Reparate; and has a number of small bars and restaurants. Try the Ice-cream at Fenocchio's!

Cours Mirabeau

Reviewed By Mmeurzec - Singapore, Singapore

This is a beautiful street lined with old Charming buildings in typical south of France style. Along its edges are restaurants and bistrots with terraces which are quintessential to the Provence.

Le Suquet

Reviewed By 523jayab - London, United Kingdom

Fantastic area for a leisurely stroll on a summer day. Quite a few cafes and restaurants along the way, which made it easy to stop and refuel. The old cobble-stoned winding streets take you back to the days gone by - the streets have been there for hundreds of years! Oh and don't forget to stop over at La Gelateria to try one of their amazing flavours. Highly recommended.

This is a great little town with lots of history and great photo opportunities. This is a lovely place to just hang out and enjoy the view. Lovely atmosphere.
