Cascade Donjon in Parc du Chateau in Nice, France <br /> The panoramic view of Vieux Nice or the Old Town of Nice, plus the beaches that run along the Mediterranean's Bay of Angels, is spectacular from this observation platform above a 300 foot, artificial waterfall that was built in the 18th century.  The Cascade Donjon is located in the Parc du Chateau which is on Castle Hill at the east end of town.  It was a defense fortification from the 13th through the 17th century until it was destroyed by the King of France in 1706.
