Lovely beach of Biarritz in France with the famous Hotel du Palais at the back
Lovely beach of Biarritz in France with the famous Hotel du Palais at the back. This is a very touristic area famous among the jet set where french aristocracy used to have holidays. The beach is always crowded in summer because of the warm and sunny weather. Biarritz's became more renowned in 1854 when Empress Eugenie (the wife of Napoleon III) built a palace on the beach (now the Hôtel du Palais). The British royal family regularly took vacations in Biarritz: European royalty such as Queen Victoria, Edward VII, and Alfonso XIII of Spain were frequent visitors.
