Notre Dame — Jean Médecin — Rue de Paradis

Notre Dame — Jean Médecin — Rue de Paradis

First take a walk along the Avenue de Notre Dame. You can find some labels at bargain prices for children in places like Bisque-Bisque Rage. At the Basilica, turn south along the Avenue Jean Médecin. This avenue cannot (and should not) be missed. This is where you will find many of the major fast-fashion brands like Zara, H&M, Monoprix, Quick Silver and Virgin Megastore. In addition, there are a number of brasseries where you can take a break. Turn off onto the rue de la Liberté, (this is when the fashion thermometer starts to rise) and end up with the rue de la Liberté. It is hotter than hot here — you should be able to find everything that makes French fashion what it is: Kenzo, Chanel, Mont Blanc. End your visit by going back to the Place Magenta and turn left onto the designer street, the rue Buffa, and visit, for example, Halogène at number 21.

Rue Saint-François de Paule — Rue de la Préfecture

Rue Saint-François de Paule — Rue de la Préfecture

At Rue Saint-François de Paule, you can revel in tasting Alziari’s world-famous olive oil. Or why not enjoy the fragrance of Bruno, the truffle king’s black fungi? Not to mention the sweets at Maison Auer! Take a look at Nice’s pulsing heart, the Provençal-scented flower market (marché aux Fleurs), then turn eastwards along the rue de la Préfecture. Don’t miss either the Antic Boutik or one of the other stylish fashion shops (Asso, Habit Magique). If the Cours Saleya is Nice’s heart, its main artery is the rue Droite. Walk along it. Look in on some of the many art galleries and souvenir shops, or stop and relax in a café.

MAMAC — Gioffredo-Gubernatis — Masséna

MAMAC — Gioffredo-Gubernatis — Masséna

After a visit to the Modern Museum (MAMAC) and its souvenir shop, walk along rue Defly to rue Gioffredo. This houses an interesting range of everything from home furnishings to a milliner. Take a peek at rue Gubernatis — if for no other reason than to stock up on wine bottles. If you still have not found what you want, try the Galeries Lafayette department store.

Monoprix

Monoprix

In recent years, Monoprix, with its food and clothing departments, has gained an increasing cult status. This is where you can really find an exciting selection of goods at low prices. Look out especially for their own-label brands on the delicatessen shelves.

Galeries Lafayette

Galeries Lafayette

This is France’s Rolls-Royce of department stores. Here you will find many of the finest things that France has to offer in the way of clothes and souvenirs. It is also centrally located — even if slightly hidden behind its pillared arcades. An essential place to shop during the big sales in January and July.

CAP3000

Maison Auer

Maison Auer

Really good, freshly-processed chocolate that just melts in your mouth is hard to beat. Chocolate with fruits, chocolate with nuts, one piece or how many as you like — this is the place to go to! Maison Auer is one of the oldest chocolate shops in Nice, owned by its founding family since the early 1800s. Rumour has it that it was one of Queen Victoria’s favourite chocolate shops.
