Le Train Bleu
Inaugurated in april 1901, le Train Bleu (called after the Paris-Vintimille train), has been classified as an historical monument in 1972 : the ceiling is indeed spectacular : the 41 frescos retrace the journey made by the trains of the PLM railway network at the beginning of the 20th century - Many people in the wold have catched a glimpse of it (in a scene in Luc Besson's film "Nikita"). You come to the Train Bleu to see the deco, to talk, and even to eat. But let's admitt that the food was really nothing special and evidently too expensive for what we got! But my mom always dreamt to eat at the "Train Bleu" and it was nice to be here all together!
