Princess Caroline Street

Before you know it, you’ve stepped right into the heart of old Monaco—and let’s just say, it’s full of charm and picture-perfect corners. One of the loveliest spots has to be Princess Caroline Street. Locals sometimes call it a smaller version of nearby Garibaldi Street—but what really sets it apart is that it’s fully pedestrian. No cars, no noise—just a peaceful place to stroll, take your time, and soak it all in. That alone feels like a luxury.With its sun-drenched façades and rows of orange trees lining the walkway, you’ll know without a doubt—you’re in the Mediterranean. If you’re visiting around mid-February, you might even catch the orange trees in full fruit. These aren’t your average oranges, though—they’re bitter ones, known as bigarades. Rather than going to waste, they’re carefully harvested by the city’s maintenance teams and turned into a tangy local liqueur. A true taste of Monaco! And since we’re talking about local icons—who exactly is Princess Caroline? You may not hear as much about her as her siblings, Prince Albert II and Princess Stéphanie, but Caroline is actually the eldest child of Prince Rainier III and Grace Kelly. Strong, graceful, and deeply involved in the Principality’s cultural life, she embodies the elegance of Monaco—which makes it only fitting that this beautiful street carries her name.
