“Does anyone know why this scenic route might be named after a place in Egypt?” We stand here, overlooking the city, at a spot cherished for its breathtaking vistas, known as the Chemin du Col de Caire. The Chemin du Col de Caire, a name that seems a world away from the French Riviera, holds a captivating story. This name, echoing a distant land, offers a glimpse into Nice’s rich history. You see, the name “Cairo” was once given to a neighborhood in Nice. This neighborhood, perched high above the city, was known for its stunning views, much like the Chemin du Col de Caire today. Why the Egyptian connection? The answer lies in the city’s deep-rooted ties to diverse cultures. Over the centuries, Nice has been influenced by the Greeks, Romans, Italians, and more. While the exact reason for the name “Cairo” remains a bit of a mystery, it serves as a reminder of Nice’s long and fascinating journey through time.
