Le Train des Merveilles - Sospel


Take the Train des Merveilles from Nice-Ville railway station and a wealth of beautiful mountain villages opens up to you which are a million miles away from the city of Nice.....


With a river winding through, the charming architecture with trompe l'oeil facades is enhanced by beautiful blooms everywhere adorning ornamental lamp-posts and balustrades.....


With charming cafes and bistrots, churches and plazas, what a wonderful place to while away an afternoon before boarding the train to wind your way back to the metropolis. It takes just 45 minutes to return on Le Train des Merveilles. Enjoy!!

One almost expects to see a knight on his horse riding around the area! Magical.
