A lovely 3 hectares park in Nice, very close to the Matisse Museum and the Cimiez Monastery, with ancient olive trees.

Great for picnics and Sunday walks, it is also the site of a number of Roman arenas and amphitheatres as well as an archaeological museum. These Roman ruins can be visited for free.

In May, it is the location for the annual Nice Jazz Festival.
