Monaco Monaco

Monaco evokes luxury and glamour. This small country, the world’s second smallest in fact, has a big personality. Its privileged geographical location on the French Riviera makes it a gem of a city. The oldest part of the city is known as the Rock. The Rock houses the National Council, the parliament of the Principality of Monaco, and the Prince’s Palace. The Palace is a major touristic attraction, even though from the outside there is nothing to suggest it is the home of the Royal Family. Its values resides on the inside, where magnificent rooms are filled with an impressive artistic assortment. Get there at 11.55am for the daily changing of the guard. The most acclaimed part of the city is Monte Carlo, with its majestic Casino. Monte Carlo oozes privilege and opulence, its streets are crowded by celebrities and the super-rich flashing its hedonist lifestyle. Gardens, fountains and contemporary sculptures embellish the streets. For visitors wishing to bask in some Monaco glitz, there are big annual events such as the Tennis Masters Series in April and the Formula 1 Grand Prix in May. Away from the glamour, we have La Condamine, the second oldest district in Monaco, with its simple and pleasant beauty. In this part of the city, visitors can enjoy scenic walking routes, pretty costal bays and al fresco cafés. Monaco is beautiful and chic, it is brimming with uber high end resorts and has got a great weather and even better food. If you do visit Monaco it won’t disappoint because in this city everything is there to please you.
