LIVING & LEARNING FRENCH IN NICE FRANCE

Matisse Museum
The lovely and innovative art of Henri Matisse was inspired by the fresh colors and lines of Nice. This vast museum shows Matisse's works from his more traditional early days to the end of his career.

Vieux Nice, or Old Nice
Old Nice is downright dripping with atmosphere. Its narrow streets are a one-stop shop for take-home finds, such as Provençal wares, household items, wine, gourmet gifts, hip clothing and more. There are numerous restaurants in the area, as well as several fun bars and nightclubs.

Le Chateau
The best reason to visit the chateau is for the spectacular panoramic view of the city and sea. You won't actually see much of a castle (only a few sections of it remain). You can take the elevator up for a nominal price or hike up the stairs for free to the park atop the hill. Be sure to bring your camera.

Promenade des Anglais
Few spots epitomize Nice -- or, in fact, the joie de vivre of the French Riviera in general -- than the inviting Promenade des Anglais. It is always bustling with humanity. There are locals roller blading, biking or jogging along it. Vendors sell crepes and drinks on it. .

Rue de France Pedestrian Zone
The Nice pedestrian zone, or "zone pietonne," is a hub of activity. This is the place if you need to load up on souvenirs. Street entertainers frequent this area. There are gourmet shops, clothing shops, news stands, bookstores and more.

Russian Cathedral
What a juxtaposition: the traditional Russian onion towers in the background, and the tropical palm trees in the foreground.

Nice Archaeology Museum and Roman Ruins
Visit the ruins of a Roman arena and bathhouses at (or next to) this museum in the Nice Cimiez neighborhood (right next to the Matisse Museum). Inside, the archaeology museum houses an interesting mix of historic and archeological exhibits on the area.

Cours Saleya Flower Market
Nice's famous Flower Market is one of the best attractions in the whole city. The edges are lined with cafés and souvenir shops, and the stands themselves are packed with amazing produce and myriad flowers. It operates six days a week, replaced on Mondays by a flea and antiques market.

Local beaches
The beaches in Nice start at the airport and follow the 5 km sweep of the Promenade des Anglais all the way round to the foot of the Castle Hill - the 'Chateau'. This is where the favourite beach is located - Castel Plage.

The Port of Nice is on the other side of the Chateau and there is a small public beach here, on rocks, in front of the port wall. There are fifteen private beaches in Nice with plenty of free public beaches between them.

Our French immersion language program allows you plenty of time to discover the culture of the Cote d Azur & Nice.
