Nice is a huge, busy city nestling on the French Riviera and surrounded on the remaining three sides by mountains. As well as its location, it is famous for the Promenade des Anglais, where you can see and be seen by walkers, runners, joggers, cyclists and rollerbladers. The white pebbled beach stretches for about six miles and leads into a gorgeous turquoise sea. The buildings are tall and elaborately ornamented. From these, every day, thousands of citizens and tourists spill out into the city.
Nice is also famous for its February festival. This is a wild, ten day celebrations with daily parades, music and street theatre. It has been running for over 120 years.

Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur (PACA) is one of the 26 regions of France.
It is made up of:
The former French province of Provence

The southeastern part of the former French province of Dauphiné, in the French Alps.

It encompasses six departments in south-eastern France, bounded to the east by the Italian border, to the south by the Mediterranean Sea to the north by Rhône-Alpes, and to the west by Languedoc-Roussillon, with the Rhône river marking its westernmost border.
