=Antibes.=--The Greek _Antipolis_ is now partially modern. The medieval walled town is quite separate; it is exceedingly interesting and very picturesque, and contains Roman remains. =Nice.=--A large town of Parisian aspect, famous for its carnival; is one of the most fashionable and populous of the Riviera resorts. Cimiez, on the high ground behind Nice, was a Roman town, and still retains large portions of its amphitheatre. =Eze.=--A romantically perched Saracen village, in one of the most beautiful spots on the French Riviera. =Villefranche.=--An old town, formerly Villafranca; has a picturesque harbour and old arched streets. =Beaulieu.=--A new collection of villas and hotels. =Monaco.=--Is a principality, including Monte Carlo; it stands on an almost isolated rock; castle partly thirteenth century, modern church, and museum of oceanography. =Monte Carlo.=--A new town, facing Monaco, famous on account of its Casino, which is conspicuous; foundation-stone laid in 1858 by the present Prince of Monaco. =Roquebrune.=--A picturesque rock village, with a ruined castle and fine views. =La Turbie.=--An old village by the ruins of the enormous Roman trophy to Augustus, put up about 12 B.C.; joined to Monte Carlo by a funicular railway. =Mentone.=--A beautifully situated Riviera resort, with grand mountain scenery and a safe climate. =La Mortola.=--The villa and gardens of the late Sir Thomas Hanbury. =Ventimiglia.=--An Italian town near the frontier; Romanesque cathedral, with early baptistery; Church of St. Michele; old tunnelled passages and medieval walls. =Dolceacqua.=--Strikingly picturesque rock village, with ruins of an imposing castle. =Apricale.=--Another rock village, in a wonderfully fine mountainous situation. =Bordighera.=--A modern resort, with beautiful surroundings and an old village on Capo San Ampeglio. =Ospedaletti.=--A small and newly built resort. =San Remo.=--A large and fashionable town, with fine scenery and a golf-course; old town, full of quaint passages and stairways. Cannes has a sea-front broken by the isolated mass of rock called Mont Chevalier. Here was founded the early settlement which was, no doubt, the _Aegytna_ mentioned by Polybius as the scene of a treacherous attack by some of the Ligurian tribesmen on some unarmed Romans. The hill is now picturesquely crowned with the thirteenth-century parish church, a medieval tower, and the ruins of the castle of the Counts of Provence. Down below is a small harbour. The views westwards from the palm-shaded promenades along the shore include the rugged masses of the always attractive Estérels. [Illustration: TOWN PLAN NO. 24.--CANNES.]
