It takes about half an hour to drive from the old town of Nice to the town of Eze. Going up from the town, you will find the botanical garden on the top of the mountain, which is the highest point of the town. The town of Eze is free to visit, but you need to buy a ticket for the botanical garden, which is 6 euros per person. It is definitely worth a visit because you can overlook the Mediterranean Sea from the top of the mountain, which is very beautiful.
The botanical garden on the top of the hill in the town of Eze was once a castle. It was destroyed by Louis XIV's army during the Spanish War in 1706, and the ruins of the castle became the current botanical garden. In the exotic botanical garden, hundreds of exotic plants are gathered, including: agave, aloe, cactus, etc. There are more than 400 varieties in total, mainly from America and Africa. In addition to these exotic flowers and plants, there are also many sculptures by French sculptor Jean Richard Philips.
