The Casino District of Monte Carlo



1st June 2013
 
Just atop the hill behind the Buddha Bar is the main centre of Monte Carlo. The 3 most important buildings of the city are located here - the Casino Royal Royale, the Café de Paris and the Hotel de Paris. The Casino also houses the 'shopping mall' where all the designer shops are found. In front of the Casino and the Hotel de Paris - rows of Ferraris , Lamborghinis, Maseratis and what not are parked  much to the envy of the many tourists who took the chance to take pictures of themselves posing besides these expensive cars.
