Cultural tour in Nice

Discover Nice and its historical centre, you will be amazed by the number of treasures you will find. From ruins of Greek and Roman temples through Middle Age houses to baroque buildings and churches and belle époque palaces, so many different styles and shapes to admire including the most original Russian oriental churches and private mansions. White Russian aristocracy chose Nice as the ultimate vacation destination. Most of its 19th century palaces used to belong to rich Russians who funded the constructions of the Orthodox Cathedral, masterpiece of Russian oriental architecture in Nice. The tradition goes on as thousands of Russian tycoons and well off tourists keep on coming from Russia to Nice every year and they even purchase real estate in this Mediterranean town where so many Russian refugees found a new home and motherland far from dangers of communist revolution. The old center of Nice built between 1200 and 1700 and its churches and buildings is not far from the ancient port situated under a mighty hill. Book a vacation rental in Nice and climb from the ancient port to the top of the hill and visit the Fortress and the ancient cemetery.
