A treasure trove of luxury and glamour awaits you along an exclusive two-mile coastline on the Mediterranean Sea. High-net-worth individuals, professional athletes and international stars flock to Monaco. Although this rocky promontory is filled with flamboyant sports cars, luxury apartments, superyachts and endless entertainment, it's not lacking in culture or history. The sovereign family ensures that the principality's distinguished heritage is preserved and appreciated. And its extravagant opulence is only matched by its charm. The Yacht Club de Monaco, recently designed by Foster + Partners, contrasts sharply with the monumental baroque edifice housing the Oceanographic Museum of Monaco. The New National Museum of Monaco, which showcases the latest trends in contemporary art, stands in stark contrast to the Princely Palace of Monaco, which dates back to the 12th century. Yet all this coexists harmoniously on two hundred hectares of Earth.
The list of Monaco regulars resembles that of guests at the grandest private party: Charles Leclerc, Grace Kelly, Sir Roger Moore, Tyra Banks, Frank Sinatra, Rudolf Nureyev, Björn Borg and Ringo Starr, to name but a few. Whether they're drawn by the top-notch competitions (Grand Prix de Monaco, Rolex Monte-Carlo Masters), the must-see events (Ballets de Monte-Carlo, Fête nationale monégasque), the Société des Bains de Mer's iconic properties (Casino de Monte-Carlo, Hôtel de Paris Monte-Carlo, Monte-Carlo Beach) or the Michelin-starred restaurants (Le Louis XV, Rampoldi, Pavyllon Monte-Carlo), celebrities from all over the world keep coming back again and again. With exclusive images from the palace archives and a foreword by Prince Albert II of Monaco, Monte Carlo offers readers a place of choice with VIP access to the jewel of the Azure Coast.
