  About Nice
***********************************************************************


Nice, Capital of the French Riviera, is a charming city between sea and 
mountains, which has a strong cultural heritage. You will discover the 
French gastronomy and specialities from Nice, the numerous museums 
(Musée Matisse, Musée des Arts Asiatiques, Musée des Beaux Arts, Musée 
d’Art Moderne et d’Art Contemporain (MAMAC), Musée Chagall…) and of 
course various places like “la promenade des Anglais” or “le Vieux 
Nice”. In “La Promenade des Anglais”, you may practice sports like 
running, roller skating or cycling, enjoy the beauty of the Meditterean 
Sea and spend some time on the beach. You can also walk downtown to do 
some shopping or just discover the city by using the Tramway which 
allows you to go about everywhere in Nice. There are many places to go 
out to enjoy your evenings in the Vieux Nice, around the harbor or downtown.
