Monaco - luxury defined

Monaco - a 25 minute train ride from Nice, and home to the greatest sporting event of my youth - the Monaco F1 Grand Prix. Monaco for an F1 fan is like a dream made true, you can walk (or rent a scooter and drive) the track, seeing the corners and straights such as Lowes Hairpin, Rascasse, Casino Square, Portier, the Tunnel. The circuit is smaller than you expect - no wonder its hard to overtake on this track.

The aspect of Monaco that would stand out for non motor racing fans is the incredibly luxury in this city. The boats and the apartments stand out - incredible wealth displayed in every view.
