Nice has a history it’s proud to share with the rest of the world. Founded by the ancient Greeks around 350 BCE, it later became part of the Roman Empire which named it “Nicaea.” Through the centuries, it witnessed the rule of various powers, such as the Counts of Provence and the House of Savoy.

During the 1800s, Nice played a crucial role in the unification of Italy before joining France in 1860. Renowned for its irresistible Mediterranean climate and vibrant culture, Nice is a destination well-loved today for its mix of historic charm, modern allure, and a splash of star-watching.
