Monte Carlo Casino, Beaux-Arts casino in Monte Carlo, Monaco
The Monte Carlo Casino features ornate marble columns, gilded decorations, crystal chandeliers, and intricate frescoes throughout its gaming rooms and opera house.
Charles Garnier, architect of the Paris Opera House, transformed the casino building in 1878 by adding an opera hall and expanding the gaming facilities.
The casino halls display a collection of paintings, sculptures, and decorative arts that represent the French Belle Époque period of the late 19th century.
Visitors must present valid identification, follow a formal dress code, and pay an entrance fee to access the gaming rooms and European salons.
Monaco citizens cannot enter the gaming areas due to a law established by Princess Caroline to protect the local population from gambling risks.

The French Riviera between Monaco and Saint-Tropez features a diverse architectural heritage reflecting centuries of history. Visitors can explore medieval villages such as the historic center of Grasse, known as the perfume capital since the 16th century, or Saint-Paul-de-Vence, home to the Maeght Foundation and its modern art collection. The region also has Belle Époque buildings like the Negresco Hotel in Nice, along with 20th-century architectural creations such as the Palais Bulles in Théoule-sur-Mer. Mediterranean gardens are another attraction along this coastal area. The Villa Ephrussi de Rothschild in Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat has nine themed gardens with vegetation suited to the local climate. The Bastide du Roy in Antibes preserves its geometric gardens and century-old olive trees. The coastline offers several vantage points overlooking the Mediterranean Sea, notably from the Le Corbusier Promenade connecting Cap Martin to Monaco over two miles, or from coves like Coco Beach where rocks and pebbles enable swimming and marine life observation.
The main monuments and cultural sites of the Principality of Monaco, including the 13th-century Prince's Palace, the historic Casino de Monte-Carlo, the Oceanographic Museum and its aquariums, the Roman-Byzantine Cathedral, as well as botanical gardens, museums, and religious buildings. These sites reflect the architectural, cultural, and natural heritage of Monaco, from the marina to green spaces and sports institutions.
