Walk on the Blue Coast
The French Riviera is renowned the world over for its glamorous nightlife, glorious beaches and gigantic gin-palaces; the chic resorts of Cannes and St Tropez have for long attracted Europe?s most affluent, from Russian Tsars to the Hollywood stars…..Centre of the Riviera is the pleasant city of Nice; like all the resort towns that run into each other along this over-developed coastal strip it is packed with holidaymakers jamming its restaurants, bars and beaches during July and August…..During the 19th century Nice took off as a beach resort, and was one of the first cities in Europe to develop a purely tourist-based economy. The seaside destination was particularly popular with the English aristocracy, who followed Queen Victoria’s example of wintering in the mild climate…..Artists such as Cezanne, van Gogh and Matisse flocked to the area, attracted by the beautiful scenery and luminous light.
