  • Abstract: The sun of the South seduces poets even on the Côte d’Azur. Since the Middle Ages, the rock of Monaco has been on the shores of the Mediterranean Sea. This cosmopolitan city is all luxury, calm and voluptuousness, between Good and Evil. The Monegasque fortress which is a paradise and a hell seems to be a daughter of Babylon. The casino, which is a temple of gambling, love and chance, becomes a prison for tourists in Monte-Carlo.
