Cours Saleya is a famous market in the heart of the French Riviera. Held every week from Tuesday to Saturday, visitors come by for local specialties like pissaladière (a thin pizza-like crust topped with olives, onions and garlic), locally made olive oils, homemade jams, organic honey, sea salt, spices, and fresh fruit and vegetables. Surrounded by beautiful pastel-hued buildings, colourful stands and buzzing cafés, Cours Saleya is must-see in Nice. Enjoy lunch in the open square and follow your nose to this Old Town market square for a taste of traditional Nice.
There's also another market nearby, Marche Liberation, where you'll find a throng of locals shopping for fresh meats and fish, fruits, vegetables, bread and cheese. It's less well-known, so it tends to be less busy and a little cheaper.
