Menton is the "The Lemon Party Capital of the World", located very close to the border of France and Italy and in many ways is more Italian than French.
It has its own microclimate, generally milder than the rest of the French Riviera, 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 pedetrianised which adds to the charm of this sedate resort.
