Parc Carol de Roumanie, Urban park in Nice, France
Parc Carol de Roumanie is an urban park in Nice that spreads across hills in the Fabron area, offering lawns, pine trees, and recreational facilities for children. The grounds feature different zones for play and relaxation for families.
The park was built on the former grounds of Fabron Castle, constructed in 1870 and later owned by King Carol II of Romania. The estate reflects how a private noble residence became a public space.
The Belle Époque section introduces children to traditional French fairground entertainment through carousels and puppet shows. Visitors experience a sense of how people once enjoyed these amusements.
The park is open daily to visitors with free access to most areas, though some attractions have separate fees. Wearing comfortable shoes is advisable since the grounds are hilly and encourage exploration.
During summer months, the park converts its roller skating area into water play zones, offering refreshing activities for families. This seasonal transformation shows how the space adapts to different times of year.
