You’ll be delighted to find that Cannes has managed to keep its warmth of welcome and its Provençale roots. This ‘City of the Stars’ may be one of the most glamorous locations in the world but it remains accessible to everyone all year round.
Monaco has four distinct sections: the Old Town, called Monaco-Ville, sits on a 60 meters high promontory. This is where the Royal Palace, the government building and the Oceanographic Museum are located.
At the foot of the Old Town is La Condamine, the second area which forms the harbour and port district. Uphill from here is Monte Carlo, with its infamous casino and the grandest of the grand old hotels. The fourth area is the tidy industrial suburb of Fontvieille.
Despite being only a little bigger than a small city, Monaco has many visitor attractions. There are several museums, some lovely gardens, and amazing shopping areas. Of course, just being in Monaco is an attraction in itself. You never know who you’ll see sitting at the bar next to you or strolling along the marina.
Finally you’ll go to St Saint-Nicolas in Nice. The stunning cathedral was built under the patronage of Tsar Nicolas II in the beginning of the 20th century and inaugurated on Dec. 17, 1912.
The cathedral has five, colored and highly polished onion-domed cupolas giving it a 17th-century appearance. It is a stunning example of Russian Orthodox architecture. It is also equally impressive inside where you’ll see many intricate carvings and frescoes.
