Antibes (6 pictures)

Hello steemians !

Old Antibes is a charming blend of history and Mediterranean beauty. Nestled on the French Riviera, this ancient town boasts narrow cobblestone streets, colorful houses, and a lively atmosphere. The historic remparts (fortified walls) surround the old town, offering stunning views of the sea and protecting the city since the 16th century.

One of Antibes' highlights is the Picasso Museum, housed in the Château Grimaldi. In 1946, Picasso worked there for a few months, leaving behind a remarkable collection of paintings and ceramics. Today, visitors can admire his works along with pieces from other modern artists.

Antibes is also known for its port, one of the largest on the Riviera. From traditional fishing boats to luxurious yachts, Port Vauban showcases a mix of maritime traditions and modern elegance. Nearby, the Ferris wheel offers a breathtaking panoramic view of the coastline, especially at sunset.

Strolling through the old town, you'll find lively markets, charming cafés, and a mix of local and international influences. Whether you're exploring historic landmarks or enjoying the seaside ambiance, Old Antibes captures the essence of the French Riviera—rich in history, art, and coastal charm.

Have a nice day !
