Make your way toward the port and here you will find Old Nice. Bars, restaurants, shops and Antiques. Every morning there is a large flower market in the square. Its worth having a coffee in one of the many cafes just to sit and smell the perfume!
The whole of the old town is taken up with a large antiques market on Mondays. Get there early for those bargains!
The ferry to Corsica is also very close by and its only a short trip to get there

Quite the reverse of most Provençal villages, Valbonne was built along the lines of a strict plan drawn up by the monks of the islands of Lérins off Cannes. The village is enclosed by fortified houses and counts 4 entrances, one on each side and making your way through the labyrinth of streets in the old village will take you to the 17th century Place des Arcades and the Hotel de Ville with it's 19th century belfry.
Enjoy a range of excellent restaurants, interior design shops and artist galleries or on Fridays visit on of the best open street markets which is sprawled across the villages tiny cobbled streets. Well worth a visit for those holiday presents.
