Scenic viewpoint, Panoramic viewpoint in Monaco-Ville, Monaco

The viewpoint offers views of Port Hercule, the Mediterranean Sea, and Monaco's skyline from an elevated position atop the Rock of Monaco.

The observation point sits within Monaco's medieval district, established in the 13th century when the Genoese built the first fortress on the rock.

This location provides perspectives of Monaco's architectural landmarks, including the Prince's Palace, Monte Carlo Casino, and the Oceanographic Museum.

Visitors can reach the viewpoint by taking the number 1 or 2 bus to Monaco-Ville or by climbing the Rampe Major from Place d'Armes.

From this vantage point, observers can see three countries simultaneously: Monaco, France, and Italy on clear days.
