The Place Masséna is the main square of the city. Before the Paillon River was covered over, the Pont-Neuf was the only practicable way between the old town and the modern one. The square was thus divided into two parts (North and South) in 1824.The recent rebuilding of the tramline gave the square back to the pedestrians, restoring its status as a real Mediterranean square. It is lined with palm trees and stone pines, instead of being the rectangular roundabout of sorts it had become over the years. Since its construction, the Place Masséna has always been the spot for great public events. It is used for concerts, and particularly during the summer festivals
This beautiful cathedral has english service and was located directly across from our hotel.
This cozy little bistro served amazing french cuisine and it's a family run business. The original founder is named Antoine. The current owner still has a framed photo of him displayed on the wall. Moderately priced and excellent service.
