A Promenade Paid For by the English
The Promenade des Anglais runs about seven kilometres along the Baie des Anges and takes its name literally: British visitors wintering here funded the first path in the 1820s so they would have somewhere to walk.
The clock: Nice sits at the eastern edge of France on UTC+1, a few kilometres from Italy on the same clock and twenty from Monaco, which keeps it too.
