A treasure trove of glitz and glamour awaits on an exclusive two-mile stretch of coastline along the Mediterranean. Though full of fancy sports cars, luxury apartments, super yachts and unlimited entertainment, Monaco, this rocky promontory, is not short of culture and history. The ruling Grimaldi family makes sure that the princely heritage of the principality is preserved and appreciated. And its extravagant opulence is simply equal to its charm. The newly designed by Foster + Partners, Yacht Club de Monaco stands in stark contrast to the monumental Baroque building that houses the Mus\u00e9e Oc\u00e9anographique de Monaco. The Nouveau Mus\u00e9e National de Monaco, which exhibits the most contemporary works of art, is a complete 180-degree turnaround from the Prince of Monaco’s Palace, which dates back to the 12th century. Yet it all exists harmoniously within two hundred hectares of land.<\/p>\n

The list of Monaco’s patrons resembles the guest list at the ultimate private party; Aristotle Onassis, Grace Kelly, Sir Roger Moore, Tyra Banks, Frank Sinatra, Rudolf Nureyev, Bjorn Borg and Ringo Starr, to name a few. Whether attracted by the top races (Grand Prix Monaco, Rolex Monte-Carlo Masters) or the not-to-be-missed events (Ballets de Monte-Carlo, Monaco National Day), or the iconic properties of the Soci\u00e9t\u00e9 des Bains de Mer (Monte Carlo Casino, H\u00f4tel de Paris Monte Carlo, Monte-Carlo Beach) or the Michelin-starred restaurants (Le Louis XV, Rampoldi, Pavyllon Monte-Carlo), the world’s celebrities keep coming back again and again.<\/p>\n
