The garden was beautiful with fantastic views of Nice. It will even better in the spring since not all the flowers were in bloom!

Notre Dame de Cimiez Church Monastere de Cimiez

The church was great to see also. The church is beautiful with it artwork and stain glass. It was dark church that felt very holy and sacred with lit candles.

The Archeology Museum was neat to see the Roman ruins. Its just incrediable to see in person!
