Provence-Alpes-Cote-d'Azur, French Riviera or Riviera
region of France has a landscape bathed in brilliant
light, which inspired some of the world's great artists
and writers, from Van Gogh, Renoir, Matisse and Cezanne
to Picasso and from F. Scott Fitzgerald to Pagnol. The
museums and galleries devoted to their work are a must
for lovers of fine art.
From its herb-scented hills to its yacht-filled
harbours, no other region of France fires the
imagination as strongly as Provence-Alpes-Cote-d'Azur.
The area of Provence has a combination of natural
beauty, a superb Mediterranean climate and is a world
away from the luxurious Mediterranean resorts which lie
a little over an hours drive to the South on the French
Riviera. Don't leave without fragrant memories of Grasse
- the perfume capital of the world.
Nice, still retaining much of its Italian influence,
offers a wealth of cultural attractions along with the
splendid Promenade des Anglais. Monaco, less than 1
square mile in size, is home to royalty as well as Monte
Carlo and its glittering Casino. Cannes hosts numerous
international festivals, is one of the most fashionable
resorts on the Riviera and has many luxurious hotels and
boutiques. The narrow streets of St Tropez are filled
with shops and cafés leading down to the harbour packed
with luxury
yachts.
