Monaco and Monte Carlo
Our visit to the resort of Monte Carlo in Monaco
Monaco isn't part of France, but is located in the middle of the Cote d'Azur. Nice is only nine miles away, and Italy is about five miles.
Monaco is made up of several hills and a peninsula that juts out into the Mediterranean.
It is less than one square mile, but has some of the most expensive property in the world. The largest yachts in the world can be seen in the harbour.
