Jardin Albert Ier (Albert I Garden)
Jardin Albert Ier (Albert I Garden) Review
Along the Promenade des Anglais, this luxurious garden stands over the delta of the River Paillon, underground since 1882. Every kind of flower and palm tree grows here, thrown into exotic relief by night illumination. Home base for many city festivals and sporting events, the jardin is also now the starting point for Nice's Green Corridor—a 30-acre park running right through the city, from here up to the Museum of Modern Art.
