Discover Monaco (France)


The principality of Monaco and glittering seaside town of Monte Carlo are nestled in between the soaring Alps and azure Mediterranean. Presiding over the French Riviera, close to the Italian border, this tiny independent state is well known for playing host to a wealth of glamorous expats and tax-evading millionaires as well as having a fascinating royal family that graces the pages of glossy magazines around the world. Renowned for being one of the most prestigious and extravagant places in the world, impeccable tree-lined boulevards lined with opulent restaurants and international cafes lead to perfectly manicured parks and the city's most famous monument, the glitzy Monte Carlo Casino. South of the Casino, in Monte Carlo's Golden Circle, fashionable boutiques are unparalleled in their displays of top labels and luxury items. Each year the city bursts with energy during the Monaco Grand Prix as Formula One cars thrillingly race through the streets past cheering onlookers.
