It’s impossible to talk about Nice without mentioning the famous Promenade des Anglais (EnglishPromenade). Formerly a favourite resort for English people during winter months, it’s today the mostfamous tourist attraction of the city. If you are coming to Nice for the first time , strongly recommend you to at least walk on the part that goes from the old town of Nice to the Negresco hotel, passing through the Jardin Albert 1er and the Palais de la Méditerranée.
