Nice’s Old Town is another must-visit when in the city. Its atmospheric, winding streets and artisan shops are definitely worth exploring. Vieux Nice, or Old Nice is home to narrow streets that are lined with delis, boutiques, shops selling household items, food shops, restaurants and cafes, all of which contribute to its charm. While in this beautiful and unique neighborhood, tourists must make it a point to pay a visit to Place Saint François, which is famous for its fish market. Also worth a visit is the 17th century baroque Palais Lascaris. Old Nice offers a unique shopping experience and is therefore the perfect place for tourists to pick up some unique souvenirs to take back home. The famous Cours Saleya flower and fruit market is also located just a stone’s throw away. As the market opens at 6am, the best time to visit it is bright and early.
