This is the ideal place to take a break and unwind before continuing a tour of the city. It is a haven of tranquility with a large lawn, fountains, pine and palm trees, and inviting blue chairs, perfectly placed to connect Vieux-Nice, the city centre and the seaside Promenade des Anglais. The kids will be delighted to ride in the charming wrought-iron merry-go-round, playing cheery tunes when it is in operation. You cannot miss the towering sculpture en forme d'arc created by artist Bernard Venet. The Albert I garden is among the oldest in the city and was named after the Belgian king in 1914.
