...visit the old town (or Vieille Nice as it is known there).
During the day the old town is very busy with a large food market full of all local produce from fish to bread. There is a large section where you can buy all types of locally caught fish, or you can buy croissants and baguettes from any of the local stores.
Of course you can also buy other things such as flowers and local paintings which are beautiful.

I visited Nice with my college last week and had a great time there. It was very hot and sunny and it was perfect for sunbathing on the beach and swimming in the sea. As well as the great weather there is loads to do in and around Nice, and in particular you can visit the old town (or Vieille Nice as it is known there).

In the night this area of Nice becomes even more vibrant with a new market full of all types of gifts from jewellery and bags to soap and sculptures. There are loads of restaurants to choose from with very nice food from steaks to mussels. There are also a variety of bars, clubs and cafes such as Oxford bar where cocktails are only £1, or Wayne's Irish bar where they dance on the tables! I also found it very easy to watch the football there (Euro 2008) as every bar and restaurant had at least one large flat screen TV outside - which enhanced a great experience.
Easy to walk there or you can catch a tram whihc runs right down the main street and are only £1 - and run very regularly
Some people say that it can be quite unsafe there, but i found it quite the contrary as it was nice and warm (even in the evening) and very safe as there were lots of people around and it would recommend it to everyone - it just makes a great holiday to NIce even better!
Advantages: Beautiful place Disadvantages: a little risky for children come night time
The old part of Nice is certainly an exciting place in places. It has interesting entertainment down on the front by the beach, and it has got some good places to go out. A great time really can be had, chez Waynes in particular is one of the best places i have ever been to. Having gone there almost every night, for the great atmosphere, great music and of course everyone up dancing on the tables. It is almost a neccesity to visit whilst in Nice. ... ...to meet fellow English speaking people, and conveniently was in very close distance to waynes.
However, The old town can definitely be a scary place at night, having first hand been attacked there! And also been approached several times and asked to buy drugs. This is my biggest criticism of the area; the kind of people who are there at night.
Nice itself though is a wonderful place and would definitely suggest visiting, with it also being in short ...
