The Monaco Palace is located on a hill near the sea. Standing in the square in front of the palace, you can overlook the Monte Carlo port, the mansions in the Fonville district, the moored private yachts and the Garlic Corner. Inside, you can visit the Royal Apartments, the Napoleon Memorial and the Palace Historical Achievements Collection. The 16th-century Italian-style corridors and murals in the palace are exquisite; the luxurious hall with colorful fine wood inlaid by Louis XV and the 17th-century marble double spiral staircase are all pleasing to the eye.
The palace square is surrounded by turrets cast in the Louis XIV period, and you can see the Sainte Marie bell tower built of white rocks, etc. If you are lucky, you can also see the changing of guard ceremony of the palace guards.
