Jardin Botanique, Botanical Garden, Nice, South France

If you happen to be in the West Nice area, there is this beautiful hideaway, called Jardin Botanique. It has been opened to the public since 1991 and is located on the hilly, east side of the city, from where it offers some amazing views. Peacefully beautiful and well maintained throughout the year, it lies on a surface of over 3.5 hectares, with more then 3500 species of mostly Mediterranean plants (some tropical species are constantly in bloom).

Hello my dear Nice, South France

We have finally arrived at Gare du Nice-Ville on a direct train (4:50h) from Milan. At Nice's main train station we quickly changed for another train to get to Nice St-Augustin. From here we just walked to pick up our rented car. It was early evening and the sky was cloudy, but nevertheless the view was well worth the wait.
