Monte-Carlo

The Prince's Palace was built on the site of a fortress built by the Genoese in 1215. A visit takes you on a journey through history from the time of the Guelfes and the Gibelins to the Napoleonic period. Several highlights of your tour may include: the Italian-style Gallery running alongside the South facade, the State Apartments, the sumptuous frescoes by XVI century Genoese artists, the Louis XV Salon, the Salon Bleu and the Throne Room. This has been the site of historic festivals and ceremonies since the XVI century. A visit to Monte-Carlo would not be complete without a visit to the Oceanographic Museum and Aquarium, Hotel de Paris, the famous Casino built in 1878, the Exotic Gardens and the Monaco Cathedral. Last but not least, you cannot miss the many exhibits/shops around town that feature information and products about the famous Formula 1 racing.
