Old Postcards of France's Premier Holiday Resort

Nice is a city on the Mediterranean coast of France which has become our favourite holiday resort over the years. It has everything you need for a great holiday - superb hotels, hundreds of cafes and restaurants, good shopping and a beautiful promenade. The only negative is the pebbly beach, but the warm Mediterranean waters are so tempting that you soon overcome this minor discomfort. Very lively at night too. At our last visit - May 2007 - a new tramway system was being constructed, and this subsequently opened in October 2007.

Promenade des Anglais and the Jetee Promenade.

The Jetee Promenade was dismantled by the Germans during WW2 for scrap iron and because it blocked free fire from German gun-batteries on the Promenade des Anglais, when they were beginning to fear an invasion on the Riviera beaches. This building was situated opposite the Casino Ruhl.

    I don't think I have ever stopped in Nice, but I've been past many times on the autoroute. Does that count?:)

    No I have not been to Nice, but I would love to go. This is a wonderful lens. Blessed by the Western European angel.
