The Old Town, or Vieux Nice, dates back to the 16th century and is bordered by the Promenade des Anglais, the 'Chateau on the hill' and Boulevard Jean Jaures. The Palais de Justice (the courthouse) is the major landmark, linking the Cours Saleya.

The Cours Saleya is the large, open square just next to the sea front at the heart of the Old Town. It is here that the famous flower and food market is held and where you have an abundance of fine restaurants, brasseries, terraces, and late-night bars with live music.

Whether buying a property to enjoy the tranquil Mediterranean lifestyle or for the pure investment rewards, the accessibility of the Old Town with both the bus station and the beach just 5 minutes away, makes life here stress-free.

Apartments in the Old Town are varied and unique because of the character of the apartments, the history within them and the fact that there is a special atmosphere in the narrow streets. Most buildings have preserved their traditional style and that means that elevators and terraces are rare.
