Nice offers visitors a mix of coastal scenery, cultural sites and everyday local life that is easy to explore on foot or by public transport.

Walk the Promenade des Anglais for clear views of the Baie des Anges and visit the Musée Matisse to see works created during the artist’s years in the city. Browse seasonal produce at the Cours Saleya market.

Neighbourhoods such as the Old Town are packed with narrow atmospheric streets with independent shops and cafés, while nearby destinations like Villefranche-sur-Mer are reachable within minutes by train, making Nice a practical base for short trips out along the Côte d’Azur.
