Menton
located on the french riviera close to monaco, Menton is all at once a city of gardens, a seaport and a beach resort. Its exceptional sunlight and the subtropical climate make Menton ideal for growing orange trees, lemon trees, palm trees, and Mimosa. Lemon is the symbol of this old city that hides at the end of fabulous staircases some antique church, stone mosaics and ceramics murals.
Roquebrune
The history of Roquebrune Cap Martin is felt everywhere, much to the pleasure of history and architecture lovers, and those nostalgic for the Roaring Twenties. The past reveals itself in the medieval village and castle, St. Marguerite's church, the ancient olive tree, the cave of Vallonet and Le Corbusier's cabin.
La Turbie
Looking over the Principality of Monaco, the whole of the commune is an immense viewpoint over the Mediterranean Sea. The views stretch as far as Italy to Cap Martin, Cap Ferrat, Cap de Nice, Antibes and finally the Esterel. The village has a lot of charm, with its narrow paved streets and vaulted passageways dating back to the Middle-Ages, tastefully restored houses and shady small squares.
