Description
Nicknamed "Le Petit Nice", its strong sunny situation, its mild winters, its surprising luminosity, its protected landscapes and its exceptional terroir, make the city of Nyons an ideal holiday destination.
The city displays a rich historic heritage whose major jewels are the Randonne Tower, the famous Romanesque Bridge and the recently renovated Arcades Square.
René Barjavel has once written: " The only difference between Nyons and Paradise is that in Nyons we are definitely alive".
