Èze, Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur, France with TranslatorsCafe.com
Interpreters in Nice:
A medieval village Èze is located in the picturesque mountains almost halfway between Nice and Monaco. You can get there in 40 minutes from Nice by bus. Alternatively you could drive. Houses in Èze are nested on the rock like birds’ nests, but the narrow cobblestone streets are cozy and surprisingly green. If you get there early in the morning before the other tourists, you can enjoy a quiet stroll along the charming streets of Èze that remind you of children’s fairytales. Stop by the small shops or galleries, or enjoy people watching in one of the street cafes. Èze residents love their village, and you too can experience its charm by staying for a few days in one of the hotels.
Don’t miss a chance to see a stunning garden and breathtaking views of the Cote d'Azur. Climb to the top of the hill to get to the Jardin Exotique. The garden has many species of cacti and exotic flowers that bloom all year round. In clear weather the panorama of the French Riviera from the garden is unforgettable.
While in Èze, you can also visit the museum of the perfume factory Galimard. You can even create your own perfume there!
A winding path leads from Èze to the beach below. It is known as Nietzsche’s Trail because walks along this path inspired the great philosopher to write his famous work “Thus Spoke Zarathustra”.

Places to see in ( Cagnes - France ) Haut de Cagnes
The medieval village of Haut-de-Cagnes, situated at the top of the castle hill, is the historical part of the town. Some 650 people chose to live in this ancient quarter (classified historical site since 1948) for the calmness of its village life, so different from the frenetic pace of the Côte d'Azur. If you are looking for authenticity, you will definitely be charmed by the patina of age on the old stones, the shade of the narrow streets full of flowers and local artists' studios.
This place, so unique on the Côte d'Azur, offers great viewpoints, showing a magnificent panorama of both the mountains and the sea. Many famous artists, such as Renoir, Soutine, Modigliani, Ziem or Klein fell in love with Haut-de-Cagnes. In 1960, the famous cabaret singer, Suzy Solidor (1900-1985) set up her cabaret -restaurant and café (that later became the antique shop), in one of the houses at the corner of the castle square. Nowadays, the cabaret has changed into Espace Solidor, the space where contemporary jewellery exhibitions are held.
La Maison des Artistes - the artists' house, is a place dedicated to local contemporary painters and sculptors. Modern art exhibitions take place here regularly. The original medieval church was restored and enlarged in 16th and 18th century. The façade of the church and some of the interior paintings date from this period. The picture in the main altar represents St Peter receiving the keys to paradise. The Way of the Cross series of paintings by local artist Charles Barkev, were placed of the church in 2000. They have the particularity of representing the inhabitants of Haut-de-Cagnes, who accepted to pose for the artist.
The first oratory was built here in 14th century; the place was outside the town walls, on the road to Italy. The chapel is divides in two parts, the closed apse and the outdoor nave, originally meant to serve as shelter for pilgrims. In the apse you can still see the colourful frescos (by Andrea de Cella) from 1530, discovered in 1930 under a layer of plaster. These well preserved mural paintings represent the scenes from the life of Virgin Mary and the childhood of Jesus.

A quick view of Tourrettes-sur-Loup
Tourettes-sur-Loup is a quirky little village in the south of France high in the hills behind Cannes & Nice. The little cobbled lanes have a nice mix of artisan shops & restaurants, but you know it's home to some folks too. It won't take too long to wander around if you can get into the village car park, but it feels full of history. You get stunning views over the region too.
Gourdon - a small mountain village close to French Rivie
Gourdon on pieni vuoristokylä Etelä-Ranskassa.
From the A8 motorway take the Cagnes sur Mer, exit on the RD 2085, then the D3. 31 km from Cannes and 14 km from Grasse.
Gourdon village. Just getting to Gourdon is an adventure in itself.
Take the road through the vertiginous Gorges du Loup, with 700 m high cliffs towering above you, and take the time to stop at the Saut du Loup waterfall for a refreshing breather in the summer. Then you'll passing through the hamlet of Pont du Loup, with its climate ideal for growing orange trees, olive trees and perfume plants, which is part of the Gourdon municipality.
From there you might choose to walk up to Gourdon, taking the old Chemin du Paradis which used to be a mule track. Beware, it's a climb of more than 500 metres, but at the end of the road is paradise!
Alternatively the less energetic visitor may prefer to stay in their car and simply drive up to one of the most beautiful villages in the whole of France... which certainly also attracts more visitors than most villages on the Riviera.
Gourdon is the archetype of a perched village, sitting like an eagle's nest at the end of a rocky spur, enjoying a truly exceptional panoramic view over more than 80 kilometres of coastline from Theoule sur mer and Nice.
It also forms a remarkably harmonious ensemble of white stone-built medieval houses, nestling around the feudal castle, all of which are beautifully restored and maintained.
Without a doubt, Gourdon has been the fortunate recipient of attentions from all the good fairies of Creation! The good fairies of commerce have been at work too, to judge by the number of craft shops that await the tourists: perfumes and soaps, honey, nougat, gingerbread, craft glassware and painting on silk, etc !
But the highlight of your visit to Gourdon will be castle. Originally owned by the Counts of Provence until the 13th century, the castle was then passed on to the Grasse-Bar, the Villeneuve-Flayosc and the Borriglione families in succession, almost all of whom where great noble families. Traces of each are still to be seen in this wonderfully preserved building.
You'll admire its imposing round and square towers, its arrow slits and Renaissance entrance gate, its cobbled inner courtyard and well, its gargoyles and vaulted hallways, not forgetting its monumental 14th century fireplace.
Inside, you can visit superb gardens laid out by Le Nôtre, Versailles' landscape gardener. The gardensare a true Eden, with their main terraces shaded by centuries' old limetrees. You will admire an Italian style garden and rock garden, as well as the apothecary's garden with its intermingling fragrances of angelicas, columbine, balsam and comfrey, lemon balm, old mints and roses, sage and tansy … medicinal plants used in the Middle Ages.
After this wonderful journey into the past, you'll enjoy a return to reality, having lunch on the terrace with a breath-taking view of the entire Riviera. Then you'll understand why Gourdon is one of the villages that attracts the most visitors on the whole of the Riviera!
