"Cimiez: A Royal Retreat in the Heart of Nice, France" Step into the enchanting world of Cimiez, where history and elegance intertwine. This picturesque neighborhood has been graced by the presence of royalty, including none other than Queen Victoria herself. At the renowned Hotel Excelsior in Nice, Queen Victoria found solace during her visit to the Riviera. The black and white photo captures Her Majesty's arrival at Cimiez, a moment frozen in time that exudes regality. The royal party gathered for a delightful luncheon at Cimiez, as depicted in a lithograph. Surrounded by opulence and fine company, Queen Victoria reveled in every moment of her stay. Even beyond palace walls, Her Majesty indulged in unique experiences. A visit to the Zoological Garden allowed her to stroke a young lion - an extraordinary encounter captured on another lithograph. From her windows at Cimiez, Queen Victoria beheld breathtaking views that left an indelible mark on her heart. The black and white photo transports us back to those serene moments when she gazed upon this idyllic landscape. In private life too, Queen Victoria cherished her time spent at Cimiez. A lithograph showcases Her Majesty's contentment amidst tranquility - a reminder that even queens seek respite from their duties. Cimiez itself became synonymous with grandeur during the queen's visit. An engraving immortalizes this historic occasion when she graced its streets with her presence - forever etching it into local lore. Her Majestys' five-o'clock tea was not confined within palace walls but extended onto country drives through Cimiez's charming countryside. Another lithograph depicts this quintessentially British tradition against the backdrop of natural beauty. As Her Majesty returned from one such drive along Villefranche Road, HMS "Cambrian" lay off Villefranche as if paying homage to the queen's presence.
