Vieux Nice, Old Town

Vieux Nice, that means old Nice is the oldest and most picturesque part of the city with its narrow streets, stands and small shops.
There is a cathedral in the center of old town. There are many tourists on the streets and it is not rundown like many other old towns.

Vieux Nice got an Italian feeling. In the old town you can eat socca, a special kind of pancake that you can only find in Nice.
