INTRODUCTION
Thirteen years ago this country along the French Rivera gained full admittance into the United Nations. It is a great place to take a day trip from France or other European countries in the vicinity.
Because of its small size, Monaco has little to offer other than the fact that it is a great resort. Monte Carlo is home to some great beaches, as well as the casino of the same name. You can catch the world famous Formula 1 race if you are there in late May. Finally, you can check out The Palace, where Grace Kelly roamed when she was part of the country's monarchy.
