Travel restrictions have been lifted for North American travelers, so once again Monaco — a cosmopolitan nation with 139 nationalities and the second-smallest independent country, can once again welcome visitors.

A playground for tourists and a haven for the wealthy, people are drawn to Monaco by its climate and the beauty of its setting and the latter by its advantageous tax regime. The country – a constitutional monarchy – is surrounded on three sides by France and occupies just under two square kilometres (0.75 sq mile) of the Cote d’Azur, where the Alpes Maritimes meet the Mediterranean.

If your plans take to you to Europe, a visit to Monaco, and its capital Monte Carlo will be rewarded for all your senses.
