Discover more about Casino Garden

Nestled around the legendary Casino de Monte-Carlo, the Casino Garden offers a refreshing escape in the heart of Monaco's bustling city. These gardens, dating back to 1893, were commissioned by Prince Charles III and designed by French landscape architect Édouard André. André envisioned the gardens as an eternal spring, embodying the warm climate of the Côte d'Azur, with tropical flora in the area known as Petite Afrique and French-style gardens in the Boulingrins. The Casino Garden is made up of distinct areas, including the Jardin de la Petite Afrique, featuring lush tropical vegetation, winding paths, fountains, and sculptures. The Jardins des Boulingrins have a more classical aesthetic with lawns, flower beds, and palm trees. The gardens have evolved over the decades, incorporating new plant species and adapting to the needs of the Principality. Today, visitors can stroll through the gardens, past pools and terraces, leading down to the Casino. The gardens also feature artwork such as Victor Vasarely's Hexa Grace.
