Oct 23-26, the group of undergraduate students who are studying at AGS in Paris this Fall through the Arcadia / AGS study abroad program took a four-day cultural trip the Nice and Monaco on the Riviera (Côte d'Azur). They stayed in the "Vieux Nice" historical part of the city with its narrow and picturesque streets, and visited many of the emblematic sites of the area, including the famous Promenade des Anglais waterfront avenue, the Cours Saleya flower market, St Nicolas Cathedral, the Parc du Chateau, and the Baie des Anges with its spectacular view on the bay. They also stepped outside of the French territory for a one-day side trip to the principality of Monaco, where they visited the harbor, the carnival, and the maritime museum. And of course, they enjoyed the fine food from Provence, including the original Salade Nicoise from Nice. This trip was an instructive and fun way for the students to discover and explore a new facet of France, where the South offers a very different experience than that of Paris.
