The best Old Town view of Nice hugging the Mediterranean Sea on the Cote d'Azur can be seen from the hilltop Parc du Chateau (La Colline du Chateau). As well as this Old Town view, the ruins of a 11th century cathedral, artificial waterfall and a cannon that booms at noon every day, the Parc du Chateau in Nice is a very interesting place.There are three ways to reach the Parc du Chateau, for the energetic folk there are stairs to the top, then there is an elevator on the Quai des Etats, and the most interesting is the mini-train from the Promenade des Anglais. This little train also goes by the flower market and the Old Town of Nice in Provence, France.The blue of the Mediterranean Sea, the red roofs of the buildings, the spires and domes of the churches, and the narrow streets makes this Nice Old Town view a forerunner of the delights one can find when strolling through the 'Vieille Ville' of Nice. ... continue below the picture...
