ASSOULINE book "Monte Carlo"

A treasure trove of glitz and glamor awaits on an exclusive two-mile stretch of coastline along the Mediterranean Sea. High-flyers, professional athletes and international stars flock to Monaco. While it's full of flashy sports cars, luxury condos, superyachts and endless entertainment, this rocky cape is not lacking in culture and history. The Sovereign Family ensures that the exceptional heritage of the Duchy is preserved and valued. And his extraordinary wealth equals his charm. The newly designed Foster + Partners Yacht Club Monaco is a stark contrast to the monumental Baroque building that houses the Musée Océanographique de Monaco. The Nouveau Musée National de Monaco, which showcases the latest in contemporary art, is a 180 compared to the Palace of the Prince of Monaco, which dates back to the 12th century. But all this exists harmoniously on two hundred hectares of land.

Monaco's list of regulars is like a guest list at the highest private party: Charles Leclerc, Grace Kelly, Sir Roger Moore, Tyra Banks, Frank Sinatra, Rudolf Nureyev, Bjorn Borg and Ringo Starr. Whether lured by top-level competitions (Monaco Grand Prix, Rolex Monte-Carlo Masters), unmissable events (Monte Carlo Ballets, Monaco National Day), iconic Société des Bains de Mer properties (Monte Carlo Casino, Hôtel de Paris Monte Carlo , Monte-Carlo Beach) or Michelin-starred restaurants (LeLouis XV, Rampoldi, Pavyllon Monte-Carlo), world celebrities continue to return again and again. With exclusive images from the palace archives and a foreword by Prince Albert II of Monaco, Monte Carlo offers readers a front-row seat with VIP access to the jewel of the French Riviera.
