Nature / Park Sights in Monaco

Fulfilling Princess Grace of Monaco's desire to have a Japanese garden in Monaco, this spectacular space is enjoyed by thousands of people each year.

These zoological gardens were established in 1954 and house a collection of over 250 species of animals, from hippos to black panthers and lemurs.

Monaco's exotic garden was opened to the public in 1933. In its prestigious, open-air setting, it brings together a wide variety of succulent plants.

These well-manicured gardens contain a variety of beautiful plants, trees and flowers as well as being home to the wonderful Princess Grace rose garden.

Created in 1917 when Prince Albert I saved the area from industrialisation and created the park to protect the olive groves.

The Mercantour National Park is composed of six valleys, with peaks reaching over 3000 metres, glacial lakes, plenty of wild animals and flora unique to Europe.
