Let’s start with St-Paul-de-Vence and then another post on Eze. Two beautiful medieval towns close to Nice. Each one perfect for a day tour.

This is St-Paul-de-Vence, clinging to the rocks and still a magnet to all kinds of tourists. Filled with galleries and art, and Fondation Maeght close by, a private museum with collections of modern and contemporary art.


Here’s some different ”street art” – I loved that hanging lady – real size!

Stars like Greta Garbo and Sophia Loren stayed at this hotel. It still looked fashionable.






I loved Fondation Maeght, and especially the tall, thin figures by Alberto Giacometti, the cat and the dog. I have seen some of them at Louisiana in Denmark before.
So, when in Nice – take the bus out there and enjoy!
I love these beautiful cities which remind me of hill towns in Provence. Thanks for sharing these beauties.
Thank you for reminding me of Provence towns too, Janet. I agree, they are lovely.
I always wondered what St. Paul de Vence was like. Thanks for showing me.
You are welcome!
What an interesting place, the statue hanging in the alley is great.
Thank you – maybe we should try?
What a beautiful place to visit!
Thank you, I loved it!
Lovely shots of St Paul de Vence and Maeght Fondation
Thank you, Shereee.
A great collection – I too like the suspended woman. How relaxing!
Yes! Maybe we should try it?
Your place or mine 😉 ?
Well…I think it is too cold here right now…and maybe rainy too…
We can do rain here too. Especially this year … 😦
😕
Wonderful Ann-Christine. You’ve certainly traveled to many beautiful and interesting places.
