Place Garibaldi, Nice

4.1
#2 of 16 in Historic Sites in Nice
Historic Site Tourist Spot
A monumental example of Baroque architecture, Place Garibaldi spreads across the area between the old town and the town center, lined by Roman-style buildings. This spacious square was designed by Antoine Spinelli, who also worked on the beautiful Chapelle du Saint-Sépulcre, which is visible from the square. Visit the cafes and try the excellent local seafood. From here, take a tour of the harbor of Vieux-Nice, the municipal theater, or the Modern Art Museum, which are all in walking distance.

Where to stay in Nice

Places to stay in Nice fall into two groups: those inland and those near the coast. Luxury hotels line the coastline and offer water views and beaches. For less expensive options, check out the hostel and private apartment offerings farther inland around the city center. Consider renting a furnished apartment with a sea view for a longer stay.
