The historic village of Carros is located in the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region of southeastern France, just over 20 kilometers from Nice. Today, it has become a popular tourist destination, thanks to the rich history and warm climate of the region. In addition, the Mediterranean Sea is only about 20 kilometers away, so be sure to reserve a rental car for your visit to Carros, in order to enjoy easy access to the many attractions in the area.
While here, be sure to check out the medieval old town centre, which boasts fantastic views of the surrounding alpine mountain range and the Var River Valley to the sea. In addition, a magnificent, 12th century castle can be found here, along with traditional narrow winding streets, shops and excellent eateries. Also of note, pay attention to the facades of the homes in the old town, as many boast impressive ornamentation. |
