Photo of the Carnival in Nice

In 1294, Charles II of Anjou was already coming to Nice "to spend the joyous days of the carnival". The beautiful city has made it a world-famous event. The Nice carnival today puts to work thousands of volunteers ; in 2005 over a million spectators watched the festivities, which brought in 1.685 million euros.
