Monte Carlo: The Carré d'Or in Monaco

At the epicenter of the Monte Carlo district, Le Carré d'Or, built in 1863 after Prince Charles III authorized the opening of a casino, was developed around the Place du Casino and the creation of the sea bathing company. The Hotel and the Café de Paris, the luxury shops and the theaters all contribute to the worldwide reputation of the area.

The landscaped gardens offer a splendid view of the beautiful facades of the Casino and the Hotel de Paris, with Mediterranean species and ponds. A haven of peace that flows in the middle of this district that distills the cultural heritage of Monaco.

Monte Carlo: the capital of prestigious addresses

Monte Carlo is a district not to be missed for its art of living.

The greatest names in gastronomy have made it their stronghold; Monte Carlo inspires luxury and refinement through its top gastronomic and hotel establishments.

From the emblematic Hôtel de Paris on Place du Casino to the Hôtel Hermitage on Beaumarchais Square, Michelin-starred chefs Alain Ducasse and Yannick Alléno bring the art of living to these exclusive addresses.

In addition to the palaces and haute gastronomy addresses, the shopping malls are worthy of the greatest capitals.

Like the Metropole Shopping Monte-Carlo, where the biggest names in ready-to-wear, jewelry and leather goods are nestled in the heart of this temple of shopping with its remarkable architecture.

A lively cultural and tourist life

In this most prestigious part of the Monte Carlo district, numerous entertainment venues orchestrate the grandeur of the Carré d'Or:

• The Monte Carlo Casino stands out as the cornerstone of the district. Designed by Charles Garnier in 1879 in a Belle Epoque style, this emblematic place of Monegasque life has a terrace that extends to the Mediterranean and offers a breathtaking view as far as the tip of Bordighera in Italy.
• The Monte Carlo Opera House or Salle Garnier, adjacent to the Casino, is a priceless jewel that testifies to the prestige of Monegasque cultural life. Many 20th century artists, including Pablo Picasso, have left their mark on the interior decorations of this world-renowned stage.
• The Princess Grace Theatre contributes today to the cultural influence of Monaco since the princess whose name it bears breathed new life into this building, formerly the Théâtre des Beaux-Arts.
