Nice

Orthodox Cathedral
Nice's Russian orthodox cathedral is dedicated to St Nicholas and is a national monument. It is impossible to miss with its distinctive half dozen gleaming onion domes. Its 17th-century appearance belies the fact that it was built in 1859, but it still claims to be the oldest orthodox cathedral in Western Europe.

Parc du Château
This lofty park rises above the city centre and offers a cool and shady place to relax on a hot summer day. The views of Nice and the Mediterranean are worth the effort of climbing up to the spot where the Greeks first set up shop when they colonised the area.
