Vieux Tende (Tende) is a historic town nestled in a steep mountain valley in the French Alps. The 'new' town resides on the valley floor, typical of French villages, while the old town clings to the mountainside. Once an Italian town until 1947, its architecture and surnames reflect this past. Visitors can explore narrow streets, ascend to the cemetery 'acropolis,' and hike to a medieval chapel or the eagle monument for panoramic views. Local specialties include goat cheese and honey. The town provides a peaceful escape from the bustling Riviera.
