Menton, nicknamed the Pearl of France, is located on the Mediterranean Sea at the Franco-Italian border, just across from the Ligurian town of Ventimiglia.
Our walk starts at the Jean Cocteau Museum and then we visit the Old Port of Menton at Plaje des Sablettes where we take a dip in the Mediterranean Sea while enjoying the views of the pastel colored houses of Menton.
Stairs on Saint-Michel street take you directly to Menton's Old Town and the famous Place aux Herbes, formerly market place, with its central fountain.
The city is famous around the world for its annual Lemon Festival (la Fête du Citron). The tradition of this event is associated with there being less tourist traffic during the winter months. So, to encourage tourists to arrive earlier than spring, the Lemon Festival has been organized in the city since the end of the 19th century.
