With more than 200,000 visitors each year, La Fete du Citron or the Lemon festival is an exclusive event that has taken on a new life in the last few years. Centering heroes from the world of cartoons and comic books, the festival commemorates numerous sculptures made out of lemon and oranges; each telling a story in a number of scenes.

People work on sculptures made with oranges and lemons representing the Eiffel tower and the entrance of a metro station on February 16, 2012 in Menton on the French Riviera, ahead of the start of the "Fete du Citron" (lemon carnival)
