Why Colline du Château matters

The old castle has gone, but the hill remains: a leafy park with a waterfall and a terrace overlooking the bay. Climb the stairs or take the lift for a sweeping view along the Promenade des Anglais.

Talking points

  • A lift runs to the top.
  • A man-made waterfall is a highlight.
  • Ideal at sunset.
