Cours Saleya and the lanes of Old Nice

The beating heart of Old Nice, where the flower market, ochre façades and maze of lanes form the city's most photographed image after the Promenade des Anglais.

In the morning, the market overflows with flowers, olives and freshly baked socca; in the evening, the same tables turn into restaurant terraces. Stepping just a street or two away is enough to find crumbling, poetic façades, far from the crowds.
