Choosing the best neighborhoods in the city of Nice

Among the best neighborhoods in the city of Nice, we can mention several where it is good to live in winter, such as:

  • Port Garibaldi
  • Mont Boron

  • Fabron-Lantern
  • Release

Here is a detailed explanation of why each of these districts of Nice is pleasant to live in.

Port Garibaldi

The Port district of Nice is located between the Colline du Château and the Boulevard Carnot. Located in the Southeast, it is very commercial and fashionable thanks to its restaurants, bars and various shops. This lively district is quite popular up to Place Garibaldi where you can see many retired boules players taking the time to live. The place is nice to walk around and watch the boats.

Mont Boron

Mont-Boron is a residential area in the heights to the east of the city. If you have certain financial means, you can acquire a superb apartment in a private residence with swimming pool and tennis court or even one of the Belle Époque villas. From here, the view is breathtaking over Cap Ferrat and the bay of Villefranche, reputed to be one of the most magnificent on the planet.

Cimiez

The Cimiez district is very close to the city center while being perched on a hill, it is particularly quiet. The luxury residences rub shoulders with old palaces and charming little shops allowing you to live like in a village without having the inconveniences of the city. The Cimiez district is also very well protected and in winter, it enjoys very mild temperatures.

Fabron Lantern

The Fabron Lanterne district is out of the way, but remains very close to the expressways linking Monaco to Cannes as well as the expressway going to the famous Promenade des Anglais, known throughout the world. If you want to find accommodation with a view of the Mediterranean, Fabron Lanterne is the ideal district to find your happiness, because most of the condominiums face the sea and the apartments have terraces on the "Big Blue". In addition, the second tram line passes through this district to connect it more easily to the city center.

Release

The Liberation district is very pleasant to live in in winter, because it is made up of a restructuring of buildings, small markets of greengrocers, the tram, restaurants, a cinematheque, a sports complex, car parks, etc. . It is therefore very practical to live there for all the advantages it offers north of Avenue Jean Médecin.

Winter living in Nice for its privileged location

Beyond the friendly neighborhoods, it is interesting to live in Nice in winter for its privileged location not far from the ski slopes of the Alps. The city with mild winters and close to the Italian border allows many activities such as water sports, winter sports, visits to Monaco or Italy located an hour away by car. If you like to take long walks in winter without getting cold, you can walk on the Promenade des Anglais by the sea or in other places bordering the Baie des Anges while enjoying your holiday every day. You can still go to the very famous Place Masséna, go to Old Nice and discover its rustic charm by chance in the small narrow streets. If you want to admire an exceptional view of the whole city overlooking the sea, climb to the top of the hill of the Castle to offer you this exceptional panorama. If you appreciate pictorial art, you will be delighted and can spend some time, on rare rainy days, at the Matisse and Chagall museums.

Nice is therefore a destination of very good choice to have a very good quality of life in winter if you want to escape the cold. Not only is spring earlier than elsewhere, but you will also benefit from a quantity of open flowers throughout the year. The sea remains warm until the end of October, so you can swim for a long time. The bravest bathe all year round, but let's not exaggerate anyway. It is good to live in Nice for all these reasons and for those that you can make and find once you are there.
