About Nice
Nice is the 5th largest city of France, after Paris, Marseille, Lyon and Toulouse. Located in the southeast of France, this pleasant Mediterranean city is home to nearly 1 million people. Because of that coastline and the surrounding beaches, the area is very popular for tourists from other European countries in the summer months.
Colline du Chateau is in the center of the city, right next to the sea and Nice Castle. It is a 10-meter walk to the castle, one of the most important symbols of the city, and can be reached by elevator. Another important feature of Nice is the presence of a large number of museums, and many of them have free entrance. Some of the museums include: The Asian Art Museum, Parc Phoenix, Chagall Museum, Matisse Museum, and the Cimiez Archaeological Museum.
Although the Mediterranean beaches here are popular, many of them are filled with pebbles. During your visit you'll be more comfortable if you take a pair of beach sandals with you. The fish soup in this coastal city is a 'sine qua non' that has to be tasted.
As a major touristic area, Nice has hotels to suit all budget levels. It is also a Mediterranean city with friendly locals. Nice International Airport is one of France's busiest airports. From the airport to the city center, a number 99 bus goes every half hour.
A final point to be considered is that when in France, people may respond negatively if you begin the conversation by speaking English. It's a better idea to try to speak a few French words first before switching to English.
