Once locat­ed out­side the main city, mod­­ern-day Nice has devel­oped around the sta­tion, mak­ing it an excel­lent start­ing point to dis­cov­er near­by beach­es and the Old Town. Con­struct­ed in the Louis XIII style, Nice-Ville sta­tion boasts sandy Arles stone and a forged steel roof that lets the warm sun of the French Riv­iera spill in. Ornate bal­conies over­look the rich­ly dec­o­rat­ed pas­sen­ger hall, and the large clock above the entrance will ensure you don’t miss your con­nec­tion.
