★★★★★a year agoThis is a lovely park built at the location of the old castle. The park is big and is located at the top of hill. You will have to climb up to reach here if you are on foot. The park has great view of Nice as well as the Mediterranean sea. Food outlets as well as kids play area are present inside the park.Do visit this place if you are in Nice and enjoy some peaceful time with nature.
