Menton
Menton lies on the Riviera near the Italian border, with an old town, citrus heritage and notable gardens. Its cultural setting reflects both French and neighbouring Ligurian influences.

Keep exploring French Riviera with our travel partners.
The old-town basilica and hillside cemetery give a historic route, while citrus and botanical gardens bring the town’s growing tradition into view. The local Mentonasc language adds another clue to Menton’s borderland character. That combination makes Menton worth exploring beyond its seafront.
What to look for
The old town rises toward Saint-Michel basilica.
The Vieux-Château cemetery sits above the historic centre.
Citrus and botanical gardens add a plant-focused side to the visit.
Useful to know
Treat the old-town climb and gardens as separate parts of a longer visit.
If combining several gardens, check their current access arrangements.
