La Condamine i Montecarlo / La Condamine and Montecarlo

IN ENGLISH BELOW THE LINE

 

Molta gent confon Montecarlo amb Mónaco, quan són dues coses diferents. Mónaco és tot l'estat principesc, el 2on país més petit del món i un ultraluxós paradís fiscal. Montecarlo és només el seu barri més exclusiu, on es troben tant el famós casino, com l'Hotel de Paris.

 

Per contra, La Condamine és el barri baix, entre Montecarlo i la vila vella de Mónaco, i té, per Mónaco, un aspecte una mica menys ultra-luxós.

 

La millor vista del mateix és des de la plaça davant del palau dels princeps, dalt la vila antiga i medieval de Mónaco.

======================

 

Many people confuse Monte Carlo with Monaco, when they are two different things. Monaco is the entire princely state, the 2nd smallest country in the world and an ultra-luxurious tax haven. Monte Carlo is only its most exclusive ward, where both the famous casino, the luxury shops and the Hotel de Paris are located.

 

La Condamine is the lower part of the city, located between Montecarlo and La Roche (old quarter). It even looks (for the Monaco standards) "less expensive".

 

The best view of it is from the square in front of the palace of the princes, above the ancient and medieval town of Monaco.
