โ 4K ๐ฎ๐น Ventimiglia - ๐ฒ๐จ Monaco - ๐ซ๐ท Grasse, cab ride on the French riviera [09.2022]
It is on the famous "French Riviera" that we meet for this new video. 259km long, the Cรดte d'Azur line connects Marseille to Ventimiglia in Italy, and is famous for the beauty of its landscapes, skirting the Mediterranean Sea for a large part. In a previous video we have discovered the line between Nice and Marseille before continuing to Paris via the LGV (link: https://youtu.be/0m3eOstD30A?si=OxvyTtjlJYdloUkK).
Today, we're looking at the line leading from Italy to Nice, departing from Ventimiglia, crossing Monaco, before passing through Nice heading to Grasse on a branch separating from the main line after Cannes. So we'll be journeying through 3 countries in this video.
If you aren't familiar with Monaco, it's the second smallest country in the world, behind Vatican City. The train line was formally above ground and was moved underground to free up space in the city. As we enter the tunnel, you can see the route the railway used to take to the left.
We hope you enjoyed the video. Don't hesitate to leave a comment.

๐ง About This Track
This 1 hour and 40 minutes audio journey has been thoughtfully composed to provide an authentic experience featuring rain, river sounds that have been carefully recorded and mastered for optimal relaxation.

The rain sounds in this track range from gentle drizzles to steady rainfall, creating a natural rhythm that the human brain finds deeply soothing. Research has shown that rain sounds activate the parasympathetic nervous system, reducing stress hormones and promoting relaxation. The audio captures the full spectrum of rainfall, from the soft patter on leaves to the deeper tones of rain on various surfaces.
Listening to this audio can provide numerous benefits for both mental and physical well-being. Rain sounds have been scientifically shown to reduce cortisol levels, the primary stress hormone. The consistent, natural rhythm helps regulate heart rate and breathing, promoting a state of deep relaxation. Many listeners report improved sleep quality and reduced anxiety after incorporating rain sounds into their routines.
Research in environmental psychology has demonstrated that rain sounds belong to a category called 'pink noise' - sounds that have equal energy per octave. Unlike white noise, pink noise more closely mimics natural sound patterns, which the human brain finds inherently calming. Studies published in the Journal of Theoretical Biology found that pink noise can enhance deep sleep by synchronizing brain waves with the sound patterns. The rhythmic, predictable nature of rainfall activates the parasympathetic nervous system, triggering a relaxation response that reduces heart rate and blood pressure.
