About Nice
Synonymous for decades with the words opulence, a sophistication and wealth, the French Riviera is the jewel of the Mediterranean Sea. Walk the Promenade des Anglais which borders the sea, and rub shoulders with royalty and film stars on golden beaches. Take a trip to Monte Carlo to see million dollar yachts in the most picturesque setting of Monte Carlo´s bay.
Nice Attractions
The Old Town is a must to be explored. Its look has changed little since the 1700s. Narrow streets and winding alleys are lined with faded 17th- and 18th-century buildings. The famous flower market never ceases to delight visitors as well as residents. The Italian façades of modern Nice and early 20th-century residences, which made the city one of Europe’s most fashionable winter retreats, remain largely intact. Although not blessed with excellent beaches, its pebbled sands continue to attract scores of sun worshippers every year.
Nice Activities
Musée National - Marc Chagall Established by the artist himself, the collection features the most important permanent exhibit of his work. The main focus is a series of 17 canvases comprising his colorful “Biblical Message.” The excellent use of space and light further enhances the featured paintings, sculptures and mosaics. Musée Matisse - Housed in a 17th-century Italian villa, the museum features exquisite paintings and bronzes by the great master. These works of art illustrate the different stages of Henri Matisse’s career and his development from the late 19th century to his death in 1954. Especially interesting are the sketches he made for his paintings in the Chapelle de Rosaire in Vence. This project was done by Matisse to thank resident nuns who nursed him back to health. Parc du Château - This large, shady public park is located on a 300-foot hill and offers beautiful views of the city and the sea. The château, after which the hill and park are named, was established in the 12th century, but razed in 1706 by Louis XIV. Russian Orthodox Cathedral of Saint Nicholas - Located in the western part of the city, the multicolored cathedral crowned by six onion domes was built in the early 1900s in 17th-century style. It is one of the most elaborate and exotic structures in Nice. Museum of Modern & Contemporary Art - The museum specializes in French and American avant-garde artwork from the 1960s to the present. Its collection includes the work of Cesar,Warhol and Christo, to name a few. Anatole Jakovsky International Naïve Art MuseumDonated to the city by Mr. and Mrs. Anatole Jakovsky in 1982, the museum traces the progression of naïve art since the 18th century.

With its spectacular cliff-top setting, this ancient Corsican fortress-town has withstood many sieges. The 15th century steps, cut high in the rock face, are evidence of its troubled history. Today, medieval buildings crown the slopes leading to the fortress which overlooks the beautiful, multi-colored sea below.
Bonifacio Attractions
Stroll down the narrow, twisting lanes of this lovely walled cliff top medieval town past ancient buildings where native son Napoleon walked when he commanded the local garrison in 1793. Visit stunning churches like Ste. Marie-Majeur, a 12th-century structure with a fountain that collects rainwater and the old market. Or explore the starkly beautiful countryside and Sartene, a traditional Corsican town.
Corsica´s wild, sensual beauty is off the beaten path of most Mediterranean cruises. The scent of the maquis -- a mixture of wild rosemary, sage and thyme -- announces Corsica´s presence even before you see its steep granite mountains rising from the sea.
Porto Vecchio Activities
The city of Porto-Vecchio presents all the advantages of a seaside resort and shows some wonderful aspects that only its natural environment can reveal. In fact, except the coast and its many beaches which represent the most appreciated destination of tourists; there are a lot of various ways to pass a splendid journey in this area. First of all, if you dislike sea, sun and beach, do not panic because you can discover the back country of this area, with its mountainous landscape and these small rivers. For example, 40 kilometers far to Porto-Vecchio is the "Aiguilles de Bavella", which are famous for their so particular forms and which can be discovered at the time of a pedestrian excursion of approximately six hours. This excursion is in fact a stage of the most famous way of great excursions of the island, the GR20, which is spread out over more than 220 kilometers and which enables you to discover Corsica in another manner. Moreover, in summer, many other activities are proposed to the tourists. Since a few years, the adventures parks have developed everywhere on the island, as well on the coast than in the "maquis" (macchia in Corsu), which is a vegetable formation lower than a forest, very dense, made up mainly of shrubs resistant to the dryness, formant of the thorny and inextricable thickets. These parks are much appreciated by the tourists because they allow a total expatriation and especially, they guarantee strong feelings, which will leave them a good remember. Today, there are four adventures parks in the Porto-Vecchio area. After that, you will be able to visit the old city with its church, in which you will appreciate a religious ceremony which will be celebrated in the regional language. Next, the evening, after having tasted the many specialities quoted below, you will be able to spend a pleasant moment to the festival which takes place each summer on the road of the beaches. And to finish this splendid day, you will dance during all the night with your friends in one of the three night clubs which are in this area.
Corsica’s northern capital, Bastia, is the center of commerce and industry and a thriving freight and passenger port. Commerce, more than tourism, is its main focus, providing employment for many Corsicans. Bastia’s industrial sprawl is offset by its aged charm. The presence of an overwhelming Italian character adds to the city’s attraction. Two distinct areas comprise the city:Terra Vecchia, the old quarter with its haphazard streets and flamboyant Baroque churches, and the more orderly Terra Nova, representing the administrative core of old Bastia.
Bastia Activities
Oratoire de Saint-RochLocated in the Terra Vecchia quarter, the chapel is a Genoese Baroque extravaganza built in 1604. The walls are covered with finely carved wooden paneling and the organ is magnificent with its decoration of gilt and wooden sculpture.
Oratoire de L’Immaculee ConceptionAlthough its exterior is rather austere, the flamboyant interior of this 17th-century church with gilt and marble ceiling, frescoes and crystal chandeliers creates an ambiance of an opera house.
Vieux PortSite of the original Porto Prado, the area around the Vieux Port is the most appealing part of town. Its soaring houses seem to bend inwards towards the water. Once busy with Genoese traders, the building of commercial docks and a ferry terminal have diminished the importance of the old port.
Terra NovaAs the administrative core of old Bastia, Terra Nova displays a distinct air of affluence. Its most impressive building is the 14th-century Governor’s Palace. During the Genoese heyday the governor and the bishop lived here, entertaining foreign dignitaries and hosting massive parties.
Synonymous for decades with the words opulence, a sophistication and wealth, the French Riviera is the jewel of the Mediterranean Sea. Walk the Promenade des Anglais which borders the sea, and rub shoulders with royalty and film stars on golden beaches. Take a trip to Monte Carlo to see million dollar yachts in the most picturesque setting of Monte Carlo´s bay.
