Tourrettes-sur-Loup, a fortified hilltop village in the Alpes-Maritimes department of southeastern France, is a popular day trip destination from Nice. Nestled in the heart of the village, a medieval center closed to traffic invites visitors to explore its narrow, winding streets. Stone homes line these lanes, interspersed with ground-floor shops, art galleries, craft workshops, and open-air cafes. Today, visitors can wander through this historic setting, enjoying the blend of traditional architecture and vibrant local culture.
