Located in the heart of the Côte d'Azur between Nice and Cannes, five minutes from the Mediterranean, Biot conceals incredible treasures. The city has a past rich in historical events (stronghold of the Templars in particular). It benefits from an exceptional cultural and artistic heritage. The Fernand Léger National Museum, for example, is a prestigious witness. Today it is the meeting place for around sixty creators from different disciplines (jewelers, glassmakers, ceramists, painters, illustrators, leather workers, ironworkers, fresco artists, etc.), most of whom have their workshops open to the public. Biot is also a little paradise for the art of living. Many restaurants offer the colors and flavors of Mediterranean cuisine. The café terraces are an invitation to relaxation and conviviality.
