Tea with a view

The view from Les Remparts

During our trip to France, we visited several beautiful small towns in the Cote d'Azur aka the French Riviera. One of them was Eze-Village, a small medieval village located between Nice and Monte Carlo, sits on a narrow rocky tip overlooking the Mediterranean sea and St jean Cap Ferrat.

The tea above was enjoyed at Les Remparts of Château de La Chèvre d’Or


The site was pretty spectacular where souvenir shops, galleries, cafes were carved into the stonewall. There were no crowds when we were there. So it was really nice to leisurely walked around the site without having to bump into other tourists. Strolling the narrow lanes made me feel like I was wandering around a fairy tale village.
