                <description><![CDATA[This hilltop town above Menton claims to be the highest coastal town in Europe at 780m above sea level, although even with a catapult you'd struggle to dive into the ocean from here. <br><br>The views over Menton, Monaco and the surrounding valleys are truly fabulous and there are at least a couple of restaurants to admire them from.  <br><br>The town is only 20 minutes drive from Menton, or less from the corniche roads and motorway, but feels off the beaten track.  <br><br>For the adventurous, try climing to the old XII fort and medieval garden at the top of the town which are in a shambolic state of disrepair.  <br><br>The town contains numerous vaulted passageways and you can admire beautiful houses dating back to the XV century, with their magnificently restored doorways.  <br><br>For those looking for more recent history, the town is the entry point for a tour into what remains of the Maginot Line fortress.  <br><br>The restaurant with the best views in town is Le Righi, 1 place du fort, 06500 Sainte-Agnès. Reservations are recommended and can be made on: 04 92 10 90 88.]]></description>
