Monte Carlo book

A treasure trove of glitz and glamour awaits you on an exclusive two-mile coastline along the Mediterranean Sea. Huge gamblers, professional sportsmen, and international stars flock to Monaco en mass. Though filled with luxurious sports cars, luxury apartments, super-yachts, and unlimited entertainment, this rocky promontory isn’t lacking in culture and history. The sovereign family ensures that the illustrious heritage of the principality is preserved and treasured. And its exaggerated opulence matches its charm. The new Foster + Partners Yachts Club de Monaco is in stark contrast to the monumental Baroque building that is home to the Océanographique de Monaco. The Nouveau Musée National de Monaco, which displays the latest in contemporary art, is in stark contrast with the Palace of the Prince of Monaco, dating back to the 12th century. Yet everything lives together harmoniously in these 200 hectares of land. The list of Monaco’s regulars reads like the list of guests to the ultimate private party: Charles Leclerc, Grace Kelly, Sir Roger Moore, Tyra Banks, Frank Sinatra, Rudolf Nureyev, Bjorn Borg, and Ringo Starr, just to mention a few. Whether you’re inured by world-class competitions (Monaco Grand Prix, Rolex Monte-Carlo Masters), must-see events (Ballets de Monte-Carlo, Monaco National Day), the iconic properties of the Société des Bains de Mer (Monte Carlo Casino, Hôtel de Paris Monte Carlo, Monte-Carlo Beach), or Michelin-star restaurants (LeLouis XV, Rampoldi, Pavyllon Monte-Carlo), the world’s celebrities keep coming back again and again. With exclusive images from the palace archives and a foreword from Prince Albert II of Monaco, Monte Carlo offers readers a front row seat with VIP access to the jewel of the French Riviera.
