A fashionable nation
The tiny state of Monaco, located on luxurious land along the French Riviera, covers just 1.95 square kilometres making it smaller than Hyde Park. Local Monegasques pay no income tax, something that has lured the world’s rich and famous to its streets and kept support for its ever-photogenic Royal Family, who still exercise their rule. With such immense wealth exposed in its fashionable boutiques and lush parks, it’s not surprising that this is one of the safest parts of the globe thanks to a heavy police presence. Street crime has been virtually consigned to the history books.

Keeping it in the family
The ruling Grimaldi family have led the Principality of Monaco for the last 700 years. Prince Albert is the current head of state, having taken over the role from his father, Prince Rainier III. Many viewed Prince Rainier as a celebrity, the notion further helped by his marriage to Hollywood star Grace Kelly. This image is what keeps the Monegasques from demanding a duller system called representative democracy. And changes to French treaty signed in 1918, which only permitted male heads of state, now allows a female to take on this role.

Monaco by night
The real Monaco comes out at night when its trendy casinos, bars and nightclubs fill up with various characters who could quite easily be auditioning for the latest Bond movie. However, local resident, Roger Moore, won’t be doing that again anytime soon. The main attraction is the Monte Carlo casino. This grand building from the late 18th Century may seem quite extortionate to some but it still manages to draw in flocks of people every evening creating an exciting atmosphere. If opera and theatre are more your thing then January is the best time to be around as performance after performance hits the town.

 

Where to relax
If you need a break from Monaco's fast paced lifestyle, make a trip to the delightful Jardin Exotique. There are around 7000 different species of exotic flower to be found in this lush garden paradise. From the steep slopes you can get a fabulous view out across Monaco and Monte Carlo, which is almost worth the admission fee alone. The entry price also includes a visit to a fascinating Prehistoric Anthropology Museum and a vast network of underground caves.

For rainy days
Monaco enjoys 300 sunny days a year, which is more than enough time to work on that tan. For the other 65 days, however, there’s plenty to keep you occupied. The best place to start would be the Musee Oceanographique, one of the best aquariums in the world and certainly the largest in Europe. There are 90 tanks in total, displaying a wide range of ocean life from the most majestic to the most fearsome.

 

How to get there
You’ll have no problem making your way to the Principality of Monaco. There are flights running to neighbouring Nice from a wide range of UK airports. Nice is served by bmibaby, British Airways, easyJet, bmi, Jet2, flybe, Air France and Aer Lingus. Alternatively, for those who’d rather travel closer to the ground, Rail Europe runs services to the same city from London Waterloo.

What about the property prices and availability?
It shouldn’t come as a surprise that property prices are incredibly expensive. Most properties on offer are apartments. Part of the high price is due to the 0% income tax, which you’ll certainly benefit from if you live here.
