Nice Old Town : 400 000 Years of a Carnival of History

We are convinced that God created Nice last, after bringing countless divine wonders into the world, yet still remaining divinely Unsatisfied. Today, it is no easy task to see Nice and the French Riviera as anything other than the idyllic postcard image dreamed of by the whole world. For the city of Nice—just as alpine as it is maritime—cannot be reduced merely to the yellow of the caressing sun or the azure blue of the whispering sea, much like a famous habit that does not make the monk. Such a perspective calls for a curious and receptive spirit. Beware: there is a high risk of alpine avalanches of laughter and Mediterranean waves of warmth (human warmth, of course). Remember, God created Nice last for a good reason. Let us discover it together. Everyone is welcome to join in this divine co-adventure in Nice.
