 Things to do in Monte CarloMonte-Carlo offers a lot more than just striking natural beauty,
it also features some historical and modern attractions sure to
keep visitors of all persuasions happy. With a Mediterranean
climate, Monte-Carlo is pleasant all year round, though winters can
sometimes be a little chilly, and summers very crowded. The city is
fairly easy to navigate your way around, once you know the short
cuts. There is plenty to see and do here. Head to the Oceanographic
Museum and Aquarium to see Prince Albert''s personal collection of
marine life or just visit the 4,000 fish in the aquarium, as well
as the Shark Lagoon. Visit the Prince''s Palace, which was
established in the 13th century and has been the residence of the
Grimaldi family ever since, where 15 rooms are open to the public,
including the throne room, or check out the magnificent Monaco
Cathedral which houses the tombs of the late Princess Grace and
former princes of Monaco. Big spenders should spend some time making or blowing their
fortune at the Monte-Carlo casino, or if that''s too much for you,
enjoy relaxing in the Jardin Exotique where the thousands of plants
will amaze green-fingered travellers, or spend an afternoon
marvelling at the fabulous yachts in La Condamine, one of Monaco''s
oldest districts, where you can even spend some time browsing
through the Condamine Market. |
