Colline de Chateau
Staying in Amsterdam had left me with a cold from which I've still not fully recovered. The contrast in climate with the Rivièra is particularly striking this time of year. Cristina and me took a walk up the Colline de Chateau, the hill between the old city and the port, where there used to be a castle until its destruction in 1706 by Louis XIV. For reference here you have an image of Nice in the old days, when the castle still stood:
The hill now has a beautiful park, with waterfalls and great views of the town and the sea. Believe it or not, this was the first time we actually went up there. Enjoy the pictures!
