🇫🇷 Antibes: The Crown Jewel of the French Riviera

137 years later, standing where Monet once painted, I finally understood why we travel the world. 🎨✨ Antibes has a timeless charm that Nice can’t match—untouched nature, a labyrinthine old town, and coastal trails so beautiful, one day is not enough. 📍 Must-Visit Spots Monet’s Viewpoint 🌊 Stand where he painted "The Château d’Antibes" (1888). Navigate to: Point de vue point de I’llette (identical to his canvas!). Alps + Sea Panorama 🏔️🌊 A hidden lookout where snow-capped mountains meet the Mediterranean. Park at: Plage de la Garoupe and walk up the road beside the lot. The Old Town (Vieil Antibes) 🏡 Cobbled streets, pastel houses, artisan shops—pure Provençal magic. Don’t miss the Marché Provençal (morning market 🍊) and tiny galleries! 💡 Why Antibes? Less touristy than Nice/Cannes, but just as stunning. Hike + History + Art—all in one place. Golden Hour Tip: The fortress walls glow at sunset—bring wine. 🍷 #TravelEurope #FranceOffTheBeatenPath #MonetInspired #AntibesSecret #FrenchRivieraDream
