Cours Saleya Summer Market and the Lanes of Vieux Nice

About this video

A 73-minute July walk through the summer market on the Cours Saleya and the lanes of Vieux Nice, with no narration and on-screen captions. The first half moves between the stalls: fresh apricots, trombetta squash, crystallised violet candies, dried flowers, soaps and perfume, lavender and cheese, olive oil tins and the socca stands around Place Pierre Gautier. The walk then leaves the market for the pastel streets of the old town: Rue de la Poissonnerie, Rue Droite with the 17th-century Palais Lascaris, the church of Saint-Jacques-le-Majeur, the fish market on Place Saint-François, Place Rossetti and the Cathédrale Sainte-Réparate, before finishing in the quieter lanes around Rue de la Préfecture.
