French Riviera's Crown Jewels

The French Riviera spans from the luxury of Monaco to the naval history of Toulon. This selection highlights the region's architectural heritage, including the Belle Époque Monte-Carlo Casino and the 16th-century Fort Carré in Antibes. Artistic legacies are preserved at the Picasso Museum, housed in a former Grimaldi castle, while the Palais des Festivals represents Cannes' cinematic fame. Natural landmarks feature the white sands of Pampelonne Beach and the rugged Route des Crêtes, offering panoramic Mediterranean views alongside bustling local markets and deep-water marinas.
