The most famous promenade in France, Promenade des Anglais - the business card of Nice. It is here that nice summer evenings are held by city residents and numerous tourists. Life here does not cease either day or night - restaurants and cafes are working on the promenade, pompous boutiques and luxury hotels are waiting for customers. And from the opposite side of the embankment majestically watches the immobile and eternal sea behind the run of time. The history of the embankment dates back to the beginning of the 19th century, when the English, enchanted by the mild climate of Nice, began buying land here and building villas, turning a modest coastal road into a meeting place and walks high society.
Walking along the Promenade des Anglais is already an excursion in itself. It is here that the famous hotels with a century-old history are located - Negresco, Veltmeister, Royal and others. They are worthy competition magnificent villas - elegant Villa Ofitserov, once belonged to the sister of Napoleon, strict Villa Fortado and quaint Villa Nui. Well, you can take a break during the walk in one of the cozy promenade cafes
