    It is essentially the main drag and focal point in the city. There are all kinds of hotels and cafes along this stretch of road. It is perfect to take an evening stroll. I would usually take a stroll after supper of 1 km. or more. Sometimes, when searching for an optimal part of the beach to relax, I would have to walk a ways during the time after class. That and the hills kept my (then) boyish figure in spite of all the good eating I did (particularly at the weekends away from school).

    Walk on the Promenade des Anglais
    This is a pedestrian zone along Nice's beach. You will see a lot of people walking, roller blading or simply enjoying the view of the beach...

    The picture has been taken in March 2002. At that time, there was this exhibition of sculptures by Nikki de Sainte Phalle. I thought it added more life and a modern air to this elegant promenade.

    Both elegant and simple, Nice's charm comes from its
    exceptional climate as well as its beauty. Even
    in the winter the café terraces are filled with
    people happily drinking and contemplating the ultra famous
    Promenade des Anglais. Always in flower this wonderful
    walk follows along the bay, looking out onto
    the Baie des Anges and the beaches on one side,
    and on the other such luxury hotels
    as the Negresco.

    Promenade des Anglais (Walk of the English)was built in 1820 by an Englishman, Lewis Way, for afternoon constitutionals.
    It is a great place to take a walk, jog, drive a bicycle or something. It goes just by the beach and it is great day or night. There are nice hotels... like Negresco (on the first photo), on the other side of the road. There is American Promenade too, but I've been told the English one is better.
    You can take a romantic walk, regular walk, jog, sit there and enjoy, go down on the beach... whatever you like.

    Promenade des Anglais

    In the new part of town during the day,
    you'll want to take at least one walk
    down the Promenade des Anglais,
    two wide carriageways separated by
    flowerbeds and palm trees, stretching
    two and a half miles down the waterfront. ....

    ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

    On one side of the promenade, you'll find grand hotels both modern
    and quaint, and along most of the other side stretches the beaches
    of the Baie des Anges.

    The beaches alternate between public and private, and you can find
    waterskiing, windsurfing, parasailing, jet-skiing rentals in many places .....

    This busy strip following the coast line of the sea stretches from a part of the city to the other. There are bike lanes and a wide path for walking, there are stairs leading to the beaches below. This is a very active area all day any time of the day, it's nice to walk along the strip take in the fresh sea air and the wonderful views!!

    Promenade des Anglais is one of the most popular sidewalks of Nice. I stayed in Nice for 3 weeks and nearlt every night I had a walk thorough this beautiful road.

    You can see the crowded cafes, restaurants, in the daytime, you can encounter many poeple rollerskating or on scooters,.
    Many hotels, both modern and Belle Epoque, museums and posh apartments, the Promenade des Anglais is a long wide road which runs the length of the seafront at Nice

    Promenade des Anglais (Walk of the English) . The construction of this long boulevard along the famous Nice beaches was originally paid for by money collected from wealthy English tourists who spent their English winters in Nice in the early 19th century. What was once just a foot and carriage path is now a busy thoroughfare which offers the best access to the beaches of Nice, which are jammed in summer.
