Place Masséna

Nice on the South French coast with stunning sea views, the center of Nice's old town is Masena Square, the Sun Statue and the Fountain Times Square, close to Angel Bay.

A large circular square, a good walk, sculptures and fountains, many children are playing in the water. There are many roads scattered around. The store with a real estate agency nearby can take a look at the local house prices. Marsena Square is named after the Imperial Marshal Andre Massena. It was originally two squares: 1. Carlo • Alberto Square was built in 1820-1830. 2. And the Plaza Masena itself on the other side of the Palon River, in an 18th century style, built from 1840 to 1852. The south of Masena Square is the old town of Nice and the north is Jean • Medesang Street. The central part is covered with the Palon River bed, the west is adjacent to Alberto Gardens, and the Nice Light Rail Line 1 has two stations in Marsena and the Opera. The northern half of Marsena Square is rectangular and the southern half is semicircular. The ground is covered with black and white stones to form a grid shape. From the Opera House in the old town of Nice, go north through Jean • Medse Avenue to Marseille, which has a tourist information center. The square is flanked by banks and shops, and Lafayette Department Store (the branch of Galeries Lafayette) is here. Nearby is the bus station concentration, the square is placed with art works - seven sculptures of "Nice Dialogue" created by Spanish artist Holm • Prensa (Jaume Plensa), representing 7 continents.

The Massena Square in Nice is not far from Angel Bay. The buildings here are built along the bay. The square is very spacious and very lively. The architectural design is also very beautiful, mainly with many cafes and restaurants for visitors to relax and taste food.

The Place Masséna is the main square of the city. Before the Paillon River was covered over, the Pont-Neuf was the only practicable way between the old town and the modern one. The square was thus divided into two parts (North and South) in 1824. With the demolition of the Masséna Casino in 1979, the Place Masséna became more spacious and less dense and is now bordered by red ochre buildings of Italian architecture

There was a light up at Massena Square at night, and there were many people at night. A city that is easy to sightsee in a location just off the beach!

The street lights are unique and the colors of the buildings are all cute. 🌸 It's so good to sit outside and drink coffee ^^
