Beyond the borders of France and even Europe, the tourist reputation of the Promenade des Anglais is well established! A real landmark in the heart of the city, the famous Promenade was established at the beginning of the 19th century by the English aristocracy, which regularly spent its holidays in Nice. Today, it occupies most of the area between Nice-Côte d'Azur airport to the west and the Quai des Etats-Unis to the east for a length of seven kilometres(four miles) with a large number of attractions: bike paths, driveways and side paths, kiosques, pergolas, palm trees and lounge chairs that make it all the charm – without forgetting the legendary panorama of the ‘Baie des Anges’!
Walking along the Promenade, you can easily see some of Nice’s architectural wonders: its beaches first, but also the Phoenix Park and its impressive Museum of Asian Arts, the Palace of the Mediterranean and the famous Hotel Negresco.
There are many bars and restaurants all year round and bicycle kiosks are available! The Promenade des Anglais is also accessible to skaters on wheels, scooters and other non-motorized means of transport.
In addition, the various successful events in Nice are mainly organized on the Promenade. So, it’s the must-see place in Nice when you’re visiting the French Riviera!
