Very close to Nice is the small country of Monte Carlo. Only a few miles long and one of the smallest countries in the world. That said, also one of the wealthiest. Ruled by the same family since the 1500's, it is famous for many things, especially Grace Kelly marrying the prince in the 1950's. It was about a half an hour bus ride from Nice and is right along the French and Italian Borders.
Definitely lots of money in Monaco, look at the size of this yacht.
Check out the car on the right side for perspective.
Changing of the guard at the palace
View of the city. The hills behind are in Italy, it is a very small country.
Look down from the Palace to the Harbor, as you see, it is packed.
