T
he Lemon festival in Menton is an amazing show that prob-
ably has no equal in the world. Traditionally, it is opened by
a festive parade through the streets of Menton. Entertainers
march and dance cheerful music while floats feature enormous citrus
fruit sculptures. Just imagine: dozens of giant sculptures, from the In-
dian Taj Mahal, to the Italian Colosseum; live dinosaurs, and all your
favourite Disney characters, all made from lemons and oranges! The
theme of the Menton Lemon Festival changes every year and attracts
over 200,000 tourists. This year’s theme is Bollywood.
