An ancient castle is located on the hill which offers an incredible panoramic view of Cannes.
How to view Cannes from the tower of the de la Castre castle in Cannes
The Le Suquet quarter (sometimes it is also called Mont-Chevalier) is small, but extremely diverse. De la Castre castle is located in its western part, surrounded by small streets with low Provencal houses with traditional green shutters and picturesque gardens with Mediterranean plants. And of course at the very top of the tower you can find a beautiful observation deck, where a breathtaking view on the city and the Azure Coast opens.
