Banana plantsBanana plants growing on a plantation. Each herbaceous trunk bears only one bunch of fruit and is cut down after harvest to encourage new growth from the rhizome (underground stem)
The banana plant is a gigantic herb that springs from an underground stem, or rhizome, to form a false trunk 3–6 metres (10–20 feet) high. This trunk is composed of the basal portions of leaf sheaths and is crowned with a rosette of 10 to 20 oblong to elliptic leaves that sometimes attain a length of 3–3.5 metres (10–11.5 feet) and a breadth of 65 cm (26 inches). A large flower spike, carrying numerous yellowish flowers protected by large purple-red bracts, emerges at the top of the false trunk and bends downward to become bunches of 50 to 150 individual fruits, or fingers. The individual fruits, or bananas, are grouped in clusters, or hands, of 10 to 20. After a plant has fruited, it is cut down to the ground, because each trunk produces only one bunch of fruit. The dead trunk is replaced by others in the form of suckers, or shoots, which arise from the rhizome at roughly six-month intervals. The life of a single rhizome thus continues for many years, and the weaker suckers that it sends up through the soil are periodically pruned, while the stronger ones are allowed to grow into fruit-producing plants.

When visiting Nice; a must-see is the Promenade des Anglais (walkway of the English). Remember to bring your most comfortable walking shoes, as the seven-kilometre promenade is the perfect place for a nice long walk. Its name dates back to the 18th century when English royalty settled there to enjoy the health benefits of the climate.
As the coastline was not easily walkable, a lord insisted on building an accessible promenade over which he, his wife and his friends could stroll. Today, some hotels still bear English names. The Promenade des Anglais is one of Nice's most popular attractions. The avenue is a popular spot for many activities, such as cycling, rollerblading, running and other sports. Not to mention the many events organised there and the hotels, shops and casinos located along the avenue.
The old Mediterranean-style houses and narrow streets of Nice's charming old town give the feeling of being back in time. The picturesque tall houses usually accommodate shops, restaurants or galleries of local artists, where you can buy handmade jewellery and a variety of cosmetics.
Nice's old town is just below Castle Hill, on the northern edge of the Promenade des Anglais. The old town of Nice is filled with impressive architecture, squares and historical sites worth visiting. Be sure to visit the daily flower and food market on Cours Saleya and be enchanted by the many colours, flavours and spices. Later in the afternoon, the market gives way to restaurants under the open sky. On Mondays, there is also a local flea market, which moves to Nice's old port for the rest of the week.
