Menton
Menton is the "The Lemon Festival Capital of the World", located very close to the border of [wiki=0309a6c666a7a803fdb9db95de71cf01]France[/wiki] and [wiki=1007e1b7f894dfbf72a0eaa80f3bc57e]Italy[/wiki] and in many ways is more Italian than French. It has its own microclimate, generally milder than the rest of the [wiki=2e0f6187b01d8a7b5c961bc0b831873e]French Riviera[/wiki], and became in the late Nineteenth Century a place where Northern Europeans with TB came to either regain their health or to die. As a result its cemetery is filled with the graves of notable Englishmen, Germans, Russians. The old town is largely pedestrianised which adds to the charm of this sedate resort.
