If you thought that Cannes is all about glamour and flamboyance, then walk along the old quarter, Le Suquet. In its tiny cobbled streets and you will see the real Cannes with its old world charm. Winding alleys and the maze of tiny streets with local restaurants and cafes take you into an entirely different era. The most prominent street is Rue Saint Antoine. This quarter filled with old homes was once the residence of fishermen. There is an old clock tower and a church perched on top, which offers great views of the bay.
