Baux-de-Provence
Baux-de-Provence is definitely one of the nicest Provencal towns I have visited. Everything is unique here: the location, the views, and the attractions.
Èze – the most beautiful medieval village on the French Riviera?
The medieval village of Èze was built over 400 m above sea level, and thanks to this fact, you can enjoy a fairytale view of the French Riviera. A walk through the narrow streets of Èze gives the impression of visiting a castle that has no end.
Picasso Museum in Antibes
The Picasso Museum in Antibes is housed in Grimaldi Castle, which was inhabited by the artist during 1946. Today, you can admire Picasso’s works that were created in this place.
The Matisse Museum in Nice
The collection of works gathered at the Matisse Museum in Nice belongs to the largest in the world. There are also items of everyday use that once belonged to Henri Matisse.
Museum of Fine Arts in Nice
The Museum of Fine Arts in Nice is located in the residential district of Baumettes in a residence built for a Ukrainian princess. It exhibits mainly paintings by the Impressionists and Post-Impressionists as well as sculptures and ceramics. Some of the exhibits were sent to Nice by Napoleon III.
Old Town of Nice
The Old Town of Nice is made up of tall tenement houses lined up along narrow and shadowed streets. The ground floors are occupied by restaurants, shops, and the galleries of local artists. You can buy everything here, from Provencal spices to hand-made jewelry and cosmetics. Just go in and let yourself be carried away by the past, which is still very much present here.
