The name "Monaco City" (French: Monaco-Ville) is misleading, Monaco City is a historical and statistical district, not a city.

A wonderful experience to overlook the magnificent harbour. It is well worth the effort to gain height to secure those memorable vantage points and capture them on your camera.

Place du Palais

Reviewed By sophiapt - Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam

Iconic point for panorama view of the city and entire harbour of Monaco. Courtyard is big but empty, very clean indeed. Change guards at 11.55AM everyday but I didn't want to wait around as heard it's always too crowded. It was nice enough for magnificent view and the route to walk up on top of the hill was pleasant. It's a highlight visit while you're in Monaco.

This impressive building is very close to Saint Nicholas Cathedral and its unique architecture is going to draw your attention. I saw it only from outside and I think that it is not open for a visit.
