Talking continents!

Published on Sep, 2024

Loved story about resin statues on poles in Massena Square representing the seven continents and the color changes at night representing a dialogue between them. Tour was easy to follow until we got to the last stop Castle Hill- at which points we just listened without finding the correct spot. . Otherwise tour hit some interesting highlights in Nice.
