Antibes tour on bike 🚲
#biketour
During my trip to Antibes, I decided to explore the town by bike, and it was the best way to soak in the beauty of the French Riviera! 🚴♀️ Renting a bike was easy, and I paid around €15 for the day, which was totally worth it. I started my tour from the old town (Vieil Antibes), where the cobbled streets are filled with history, and visited the charming Marché Provençal market. The Picasso Museum (€8 entrance fee) was a must-see, showcasing Picasso’s works in a stunning castle overlooking the sea 🎨.
Cycling along the coast was breathtaking, especially when I reached the Cap d’Antibes. The coastal paths offered beautiful views of the sparkling Mediterranean. I stopped at Plage de la Salis for a quick break and to enjoy the sun, before heading to Fort Carré, a fortress that stands guard over the harbor. Nearby, the luxurious Port Vauban is filled with impressive yachts, perfect for a quick stroll.
Antibes is a perfect mix of history, art, and the sea, and biking made it all the more fun! 🚴♂️ I highly recommend it if you’re looking for a laid-back way to explore.

Musée National Picasso-Paris 🇫🇷
#paristrip
During my summer vacation in Paris, I visited the Musée National Picasso-Paris, located in the heart of the Marais at 5 Rue de Thorigny. The entrance fee is about 14 euros, and it’s definitely worth it for art lovers! 🎨🏛️
The museum is housed in the stunning Hôtel Salé, an architectural gem. Inside, I was mesmerized by the extensive collection of Picasso’s works, spanning his entire career. From his famous Blue and Rose periods to his groundbreaking Cubist pieces, the museum offers a comprehensive look at Picasso's evolution as an artist.
One of the highlights was seeing "The Weeping Woman" up close, along with many of his sketches and sculptures. The exhibits are well-curated, providing insightful context about Picasso's life and artistic journey. The top floor also offers a beautiful view of the Parisian rooftops.
After the museum, I explored the vibrant Marais district. Just a short walk away, I enjoyed a coffee at one of the many charming cafés and strolled through the historic Place des Vosges. The area is also home to the trendy Rue des Francs-Bourgeois, perfect for some boutique shopping.
Visiting the Musée National Picasso-Paris was an unforgettable experience, offering a deep dive into the genius of one of the 20th century's most influential artists. #PicassoMuseum #ParisArt #SummerInParis #MaraisDistrict #TravelFrance
