With little more than 2km² Monaco is the second-smallest independent state worldwide. Only the Vatican is smaller. In population density Monaco finishes second with a population of around 33.000. Here Macau leads the statistic.

 

I could not find any statistic on horsepower per m². The density of Porsches, Bugattis and Ferraris is extraordenary high. The owners of these cars live here, as Monaco is a tax haven. Income- and inheritance-tax for individuals are just unknown. The number of "tax refugee" residents, who would like to live in Monaco, is growing. As more millionaires need more flats, tower cranes are just everywhere (four on this shot). Thanks to reinforced concrete high-rise blocks of flats are possible even on the very steep slopes. Thanks to reclaiming area from the sea Monaco is even growing. The Principality of Monaco is not very friendly to pedestrians, as sidewalks just need to much space. To reach sea-level I had to use four different elevators.

 

Here to be seen in Monaco-ville, the old, fortified town on the rock and the administrative area. The House of Grimaldi has a palace there (started as a castle 1297). Prince of Monaco and Head of state is Albert II. On the right is the Saint Nicholas Cathedral, built end of the 19th century. On the left a small part of the large yacht-harbour, just behind the big wheel.

 

Actually to reside in Monaco was popular already more than 100 years ago. Emma Forsayth-Coe (aka "Queen Emma"), born in Samoa bought an appartment here, after having sold all her assets in what is now Papua New Guinea. She died after a colourful life in Monaco in 1913. But yes, that is a different story..

The Prince's Palace of Monaco is the official residence of the Sovereign Prince of Monaco, Albert II (Albert Alexandre Louis Pierre Grimaldi) and his wife Charlene, Princess of Monaco (Charlene Lynette Wittstock).

 

The palace was built in 1191 as a Genoese fortress. During its long and often dramatic history it has been bombarded and besieged by many foreign powers

In 1995, the harbor was used as a location in the James Bond film GoldenEye. Bond (played for the first time by Pierce Brosnan) tries to stop the villainous Xenia Onatopp from stealing a helicopter, but she escapes when Bond is foiled by the local police who are unaware of who he is.

Juan Manuel Fangio was the winner of the 1950 Monaco Grand Prix. Fangio became a five time Formula One world champion. This statue is near Port Hercules. The hill in the background leads up to the Monaco Royal Palace. The scaffolding is part of the grandstand set up for a Grand Prix race that was racing in the next two weeks

There are five bus routes in Monaco, all operated by Cie des Autobus de Monaco (CAM). There are 143 bus stops through the Principality. That is pretty good considering Monaco only has an area just under 2 kilometers

Here in the magical land of Monaco, unicorns roam free. However, their citizenship of Monaco (Monegasque) prevents them from going into the Monte Carlo Casino to play baccarat or other forms of gambling. The good thing for the unicorns: Monaco levies no income tax on individuals....or unicorns
