Parc du Château

TIME : 2016/2/18 17:51:33

This park, on a rocky outcrop above the old town, rewards with a cinematic panorama of Nice, the Baie des Anges and the port. Only the 16th-century Tour Bellanda remains of the 12th-century castle, razed by Louis XIV in 1706. The Cascade Donjon , an 18th-century artificial waterfall with viewing platform, and children's playground, make it popular for picnics. Hike up from the seafront or ride the free lift beneath Tour Bellanda.
