The seaside resort of Menton France
Places to visit and stay in Menton the town is in the Côte d'Azur region of France about 1 mile from the Italian border.
On the Mediterranean coast with the Ligurian Alps at the back of the town. It gives the town a warm climate most of the year and shelters it form the cold Mistral winds you get on this coast.
The area used to earn most of its income from the lemon, tangerine and orange groves. Now most of its income is from tourists and people retiring to live in a mild climate.

They build statues covered with lemons and oranges some are driven round the street on trucks.
The Casino Gardens are also used for the displays as you can see in the photo.

Places to visit try the Val Rameh Botanical gardens about half a mile from the town centre.You will find the gardens on Avenue St Jacques 06500. We just wandered round on our own but you can take a guided tour for a small fee.
