Cannes - The Old City

Overlooking the harbour on Suquet Hill, the restaurant-lined backstreets and small squares have retained all of their Provençal character. Down below, in Forville market , every flavour in the region meets up with local producers who come and sell their vegetables, fruit, cheese or honey. A splendid flower market sets up every morning in the shaded alleyways alongside the old harbour. A few steps away, the statue of Lord Brougham, who made Cannes’ wealth, stands tall.
