Cimiez is an upper class neighborhood in Nice which, apart from some very nice housing, contains among other things the famous Matisse Museum and the Roman Ruins.http://www.musee-matisse-nice.org/ In July every year the Jazz Festival of Nice is held on the grounds of the Roman Ruins in Cimiez. http://www.nicejazzfest.com/ Close to the ruins is what is left of the once splendid Hotel Régina where Queen Empress Victoria spent part of her long visits to the Riviera.
