The Forville market is without a doubt the very essence of French life - this traditional setting - the old covered market in Cannes - just buzzes with life in an atmosphere of colour, noise and energy and in a way that is traditionally French mediterranean. Here you will find both the working class and the hoi polloi of Cannes, literally cheek by jowl, squeezing past one another in the hubbub of the local market, as they choose their fish, meats, fruit, vegetables, cheeses, herbs, flowers - all laid out in typical market stalls, all fresh and of wonderful quality - filled with flavour and scent, unlike so many supermarket produce nowadays. An experience to savour in so many ways - if you don't see this, you don't really see a large slice of la vie Cannoise!
