Villefranche is a small, coastal town, located in the heart of the French Riviera, which stretches from St. Tropez to Menton on the Italian border, and includes the cosmopolitan towns of; Cannes, Nice and Monte Carlo. The Riviera, often referred to as the CĂ´te d’Azur, with its beautiful beaches and pleasant climate, has developed into a major tourist resort. The hill-sides surrounding the CĂ´te d’Azure contain many small, fortified towns which still retain much of their medieval character. Villefranche is a charming little town, nestled against the hillside, overlooking the bay between Nice and Monte Carlo. The pace here is slow and the atmosphere restful. Cannes, approximately 28 miles from Villefranche, was the first resort on the CĂ´te d’Azur. Each May it attracts members of the ‘Jet Set’ for the famous Film Festival. The chic and the elegant display their wealth in the exclusive hotels that line the sea-front along Boulevard de la Croisette.
Nice, just 3 miles from Villefranche, is known as the capital of the French Riviera, its main attraction being its location, right in the middle of the CĂ´te d’Azur. The beach, spanning the Baie de Anges, is lined by the Promenade des Anglais, built in 1824 and named for the British who paid for its construction.
Monte Carlo, some 6 miles from Villefranche, belongs to the Principality of Monaco and is governed independently, although the way of life is distinctively French. Known as the play-ground of the rich, it is famous for its wealth. Monaco is ruled by Prince Rainier III, a direct descendant of the Grimaldi family, who have reigned since 1275.
Eze is the beautiful home to small shops, stone houses, an exotic cactus garden, terrace restaurants, and fine hotels. It is undoubtedly one of the most picturesque villages on the Cote d’Azur. It is perched on top of a huge rock and is located halfway between Nice and Monaco. The very top of the hill features the ruins of a 14th century castle that was destroyed in the 18th century.
