Monaco at a Glance

Monaco, officially the Principality of Monaco, is a sovereign city-state and microstate, located on the French Riviera in Western Europe. It is the second smallest and the second most densely populated country in the world.

Nice, France, is the nearest large city at a distance of 11 miles. The climate is mild year-round, with an average low temperature of 8 degree Celsius and an average maximum high of 26 degrees Celsius. The principality of Monaco offers a great balance of historical and modern attractions. There are various museums, palaces, shopping malls and casinos to visit.
