Monaco - Monte-Carlo

Foillsichte: 02.06.2019

We drove along the coast from Cannes to Monaco, passing through Nice. Since we wanted to be at the casino by 12 o'clock to visit it in the morning and take photos, we couldn't stop along the way and instead saw the coast from the car.



In Monaco, we struggled through the chaotic traffic. There were still some grandstands and elements of the Formula 1 race track set up. We were relieved when we found a place in one of the overpriced parking garages and rushed to the casino.



We were able to get a ticket for the morning with an audio guide. The casino closes at 1 o'clock and then opens for gaming after an hour.



In the morning, you can also visit the back rooms and take pictures.



So we explored the richly decorated casino with its spacious rooms and listened to stories about guests who lost millions in one evening or gambled themselves into ruin...



Afterwards, we took a walk through the gardens adjacent to the casino.



We then took a bus to Monaco-Ville, the old town located on a hill. We wanted to visit the Prince's Palace, but unfortunately, it was closed due to an event on that day.



So we walked back through the lower town to the casino, where we had lunch on the terrace of a restaurant with a sea view.



Afterwards, we watched the gaming in the casino, but decided not to spend more money and continued our journey.



We had originally planned to drive along the Formula 1 race track, but due to the exhausting traffic, we decided to skip it and leave the city as quickly as possible towards Italy.



However, we spent one more night in France in Cap Martin, a small coastal town with many holiday apartments.
