The Promenade des Anglais, often referred to simply as "La Prom," was constructed in the early 19th century.

It was funded by the English aristocracy who frequented Nice during the winter months, hence the name "Promenade of the English."

Castle Hill was the site of the original settlement of Nice and the location of a castle and military citadel built in the 11th century.

The castle was a strategic military fortress until it was destroyed by the French army of Louis XIV in 1706.

The harbour has a long and storied history dating back to the 18th century.

It was constructed under the orders of King Charles Emmanuel III of Sardinia and has since played a crucial role in the economic and social development of Nice.
