As part of my eurorail travelling did a day trip city walk through the Principality of Monaco. It's unbeleivable how small the country really is. You can mistakenly cross the border by just doing a relaxed walk! It gives you the feeling of downtown Dubai but with mountains in the surrondings and significantly better weather. 

### As your wee walk begins!
For those lazy asses! It's not hard to spot escalators to help gain your step count.

### But don't go to high you could be an illegal alien in another country
I am going to make you guess where monaco ends! (hint: Not the part that has british inspired roads). While walking if you notice an environment change feeling deserted you have probably left Monaco.

### As you decent back down 
Do enjoy the beautiful blue sea and it's defintely worth heading in-person. You will
see a lot of rich people. Don't worry so long as the plastic is on thier body and not on the sea it's good for everyone!

### It's hard to miss this
You cannot mention you have gone to Monaco without spoting a fancy car with the view of the city! The policing was amazing, even with fancy cars the road discipline was fantastic.

### Do not miss walking into tunnels 
The principality is so small that below the city is basically car parks and tunnels all around the city. The car city planning is amazing. Although I hate car based cities.

### The beauty of the principality as a whole
The entire city is stunning you can admire the real beauty as you head towards the sea. If you have head phones I recommend lisenting to the Album "Death of a Bachelor" by Panic! At The Disco.

### I would never understand why would anyone buy a yatch! 
It's a boat that is really slow. I would rather buy more lego!
