Place Rossetti (Rossetti Square), Nice

If you need a place to go for a day to just sit back and watch the world go by in Nice, you may want to visit the famous Rossetti Square. This public square is reachable by several of the old streets that wander through this part of town. It has a beautiful fountain at the heart of the location, done in a classic Italian Baroque style.

The square is located in the center of the part of town known as the Old Nice. The surrounding buildings are very old, and almost appear as though they are leaning far enough to fall over. Please also watch out for the laundry hanging overhead. While in the area, you may want to visit the Saint Réparate Cathedral or get yourself some ice cream at Fenocchio’s. The church is one of the best examples of Baroque architecture in town while the ice cream is very popular among tourists and locals alike. You will also want to plan on having lunch or dinner in one of the fine restaurants or cafes located around the square. Bon Appétit.
