Itinerary
Buildings of three and four stories in the Italian style lean up against the Suquet hill, which provides a scenic backdrop to the quay. Along the Old Port side of a two-lane road and a large walkway, a row of restaurants extend their terraces onto a wide sidewalk-promenade lined with palm trees at the base of the buildings.
When people think of Cannes, they often think of the hilly, meandering, cobblestone street lined with local eateries on Rue St. Antoine, which is located in Le Suquet, the ancient town.
Located at the district's lowest point, Marché Forville is a top-notch covered market on the Riviera. Within the market's expansive premises is a section devoted to fragrant flowers.
Horses and carriages have been using the Rue Meynadier since the 16th century. Today, only pedestrians use it, and they do so to follow their whims down a bustling retail street where the butcher sits next to the cheesemaker and the fashion boutiques are surrounded by the local products. Give in to its allure and let yourself be charmed by the locations that will lead you directly to the Suquet.
The Allées de la Liberté are situated in the very center of the city, at the foot of the city's historic area, between the recently refurbished Cours Félix Faure and the Pantiero promenade. They represent the inseparable marriage of the city's local origins and its openness to the world.
A convention center in Cannes, France, the Palais des Festivals et des Congrès hosts the Cannes Film Festival, the Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity, and the NRJ Music Award.
La Croisette is an iconic beachfront boardwalk in Cannes, and the beach that runs along it is a long, public expanse of sand.

About Cannes
Cannes is a Riviera resort on the Mediterranean, with a palm-lined seafront, a film festival, an old hilltop quarter and ferries to the Lérins islands.
Cannes curves around a sandy bay on the French Riviera, with a wide seafront boulevard, La Croisette, lined with palm trees and grand hotels. The Palais des Festivals, near its western end, hosts the international film festival each May, and film stars' handprints are set in the pavement outside. The old quarter of Le Suquet climbs a hill above the old port, with narrow lanes, a church and a museum in a medieval castle.
Top-ranked sights in Cannes: Palais des Festivals et des Congrès, Gourdon, Île Sainte-Marguerite.
