How to explore Èze village

Why go

This guide helps decide how much of Èze to visit. The Sainte-Croix chapel gives a medieval anchor among the lanes, while the succulent garden turns the ascent into a view-led visit. Leave time to look at the village before heading straight to the top.

What to look for

• The Chapelle de la Sainte-Croix is associated with Èze’s White Penitents.
• Cacti and other succulents grow in the hilltop garden.
• The upper village looks out across the Mediterranean.

Useful to know

• Expect an uphill village walk rather than a level seafront promenade.
• Check the garden’s current opening and entry details if it is central to your plan.
