Have a Nice time

By: Caron Kristan

Some place in the world attract you because they are well advertised. Others attract you because they offer something unique that the rest of the world doesn''t (the pyramids, barrier reef etc). Then there are the places that seem to have been floating around your head forever without you even realizing it.

Basically, they are already in your subconscious. You just don''t realize it.

Nice in France is a place that perfectly epitomizes this. I have read countless books and seen hundreds of TV shows that have Nice involved in some form or other. I didn''t even know it was in France until I checked, it could have been in italy for all I knew. But the thing is, I still knew it was a good place to go on holiday.

Located at the heart of the French Riviera, Nice has done a very nice (pun intended) job of capitalizing upon its glamorous reputation. People want to be there, and more importantly, people want to be seen there. It is hard not to get swept along in the place.

Fair enough, the traffic is an absolute nightmare, and the descending hordes of tourists in the summer can become a bit of a drag, but look closely enough and you can find whatever you want. There are plenty of art museums and galleries and an excellently vibrant old quarter.

Modern Nice very much retains its split personality; you can revel in the world of such artistic greats as Matisse, Chagall and Picasso, marvelling at the famed local light that has always made Nice a mecca for artists. Then 10 minutes later you can delve beyond the centre and enter the insalubrious graffiti blighted suburbs that help make this the fifth largest city in France.

However, the centre is as glorious as it ever was. Few cities have the capacity to entertain tourists the way Nice does. Things have got cheap too, which is another piece of good news. Check out the internet. Sites like Octopus travel have deals on Nice Hotels that would have been unheard of a few years ago.

So, why not take a trip to a place you''ve always heard about but never thought of actually going? It is not too far away and you will be surprised by the price. What is stopping you?
