Discovering MENTON, the Gem of the French Riviera
We spent a weekend during the peak of summer in Menton, France. Menton is located in the Cote d’Azur or the French Riviera, and is the last town before the Italian border. This town used to be part of Sardinia-Piedmont, and it was once also an Italian-speaking town, so the houses have a really Italian flair.
Today, it is a very magical town where you can feel la dolce vita and the vibe of the French Riviera. The weather was cloudy, but it didn’t take away the charm! We walked around the narrow alleys and enjoyed good food and good vibes.
