Cathedrale Saint-Nicolas a Nice

This Russian cathedral was built in the early 20th century in honor of the son of Aleksandr II tsarevich Nicolai, who died in Nice after failing to recover from tuberculosis.

Not withstanding the religious aspect of the building. It is a wonderful example of Russian Orthodox Church Architecture and a gem to visit . It is located in the centre of Nice and is easily located. I would strongly recommend you put it on your itinerary.

Chapelle de la Garoupe

Reviewed By cellapink

I attended Mass at this lovely chapel in June 2019. My friends and I walked up there from Antibes Old Town. The location is wonderful, with fabulous views of the mediterranean. The interior of the chapel is quaint and contains many references to maritime life and memorials honoring sailors. Nearly everyone there for Mass was French, and there were just a few of us Americans present, but we were treated so very warmly by everyone there. After Mass, there is a little outdoor area where everyone sits and relaxes and talks. If you are a person of faith, I think you will really enjoy this experience.
