Hello friends! Today we are in Menton, located in the Cote d’Azur or the French Riviera in the southeastern part of France. Menton is just a few minutes away from the French/Italian border and and the architecture of the old town has a very Ligurian flair. The city has been ruled by different powers through the centuries, from the Republic of Genoa, to the princes Monaco, to Napoleonic France, to the Kingdom of Sardinia and back to France.
Today, it is a destination to enjoy the beautiful beaches, Mediterranean climate, charming town and great food. The walk was recorded on April, 2025. Hope you enjoy! We would be happy to answer any questions in the comments should you wish to visit.
