Place Garibaldi

Situated two steps from the port of Nice, Place Garibaldi is one of the largest and oldest squares in Nice. This place named after the hero of the Italian unification has a real architectural appeal.

In the center of the square stands a majestic fountain decorated with a statue of Garibaldi himself. You can enjoy a break in one of the cafes sheltered under the arcades or in the shade of the trees to admire the harmony and proportions of the buildings. nearby, you will also find the Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art.
