The town of Vence |
| |
Situated in the hills above Nice, in the Alpes Maritimes, Vence is about 20 miles from the airport. Vence is a centre of the flower growing industry, with small flower markets held several times a week in the charming square. The pedestrianised old town is a maze of narrow streets with many artisan shops, bars, cafes and restaurants. The beaches of Nice and Cannes are within easy reach as are the hill top villages of Saint Paul de Vence and Tourettes, with many art galleries and museums associated with the artists of Provence.
