For storytellers

Why Promenade des Anglais matters

This seafront walkway is Nice's catwalk. Blue chairs face the sea, cyclists and rollerbladers glide by, and grand hotels line the opposite side. Walk it in the late afternoon when the light turns golden. Rent a bike or simply sit on a chair with an ice cream and watch the world go by.

Talking points

  • Blue chairs line the sea edge.
  • It stretches for several kilometres.
  • It was named after English visitors who funded it.
