WOW!!!

Monaco is really worth a visit. You shouldn't miss it when you're in Northern Italy or southern France.
It's lying in between the see and the mountains, so the living space is reduced to a very small area. You can get some breath-taking views like this one, walk around all the amazing houses where a lot of stars live or just go for some shopping. But pay attention - it can be really expensive!!!

Fast cars...

... are what make this small country famous in the whole world. Of course I'm talking about the Formula on Grand-Prix held here every year. But you can find a lot of amazingly expensive cars here the whole year through, because many very rich people live here.

architecture

I found the architecture also very imressing... It's amazing to see how the peolpe here use the small space of land to make as much people live here as possible. The result are skyscrapers built into the mountains...

Pros and Cons
  • Pros:very neat and clean place, impressing views
  • Cons:rather expensive place - don't stay longer than one or two days!
  • In a nutshell:awesome things to see, famous people to meet - really worth a visit
