Stretching for seven kilometres along the azure curve of the Bay of Angels, the Promenade des Anglais is Nice's most famous landmark. Conceived in the 1820s by wintering English aristocrats, the wide seaside avenue is bordered by swaying palm trees, Belle Époque palace hotels such as Le Negresco, and lively pebble beaches. Sitting on the iconic blue chairs (chaises bleues) to gaze over the Mediterranean is a timeless ritual.
