Le Palais des Princes
Just south of the Exotic Garden is Le Palais des Princes de Monaco, the official residence of the Sovereign Prince. The opulent Prince’s Palace was built in 1191 and is also a great place to visit. Tickets are required to enter the palace, but the outside area is free! The uphill trek from La Condamine is worth the exercise for the views along the way (but there are also tourist buses and a mini-train available to avoid the hike). There are great views on both sides of the palace, and racing fans can see the F1 track from the square. I quite enjoyed exploring the narrow streets with adorable little shops. At noon each day, you can catch the changing of the guard ceremony in Place du Palais!

After I’ve watched some movies, featuring Monaco (including Grace Kelly), I already included this country in my bucket list. It was majestic, and the whole view is breathtaking!

I only spent about half a day in Monaco last year, so I got to check Jardin Exotique de Monaco and a bit of the town (Wanted to get to the marina). Will keep the palace in mind for next time we’re visiting family in the south of France!
(PS. Careful not to leave your data on if you’re from the EU, as not all companies have affordable prices for roaming in Monaco)
