Les Révoires is a north eastern residential and tourist area; part of the traditional Quartier of La Condamine in the Principality of Monaco.[1] It is also one of the ten modern administrative Wards of Monaco.[1]
Geography
Les Révoires lies on the northwestern side of the country, just north of Moneghetti.[2] Les Révoires is generally considered part of Moneghetti, even though it is its own administrative Ward. It runs directly along the neighboring French towns of Beausoleil, and Cap-d'Ail, as well as the Monégasque Wards of, La Colle, and Moneghetti.[2][3][4]
Les Révoires is known[opinion] for its steep inclines, and offers views of the Rock of Monaco and the Mediterranean. Les Révoires is also the location of the Chemin des Révoires, Monaco's highest point, 161 m above sea level.[5]
Demographics
Les Révoires is the smallest Ward in Monaco in terms of both population and land mass. Les Révoires has a population of 2,545 and is 0.09 km².[6]
Monaco has ten state-operated schools, four private schools, and one university. There are no state schools and private schools located in this district.[7] There are also very few government offices located in this district, although there is a regional police station near the Les Révoires - Moneghetti border.[8]
Tourism
Les Révoires is more of residential area, but there are many chain-owned hotels, and bed & breakfasts, along the upper slopes of Mont Agel, helping Monaco's high end tourist industry.[9]
Features
Because Les Révoires is located outside the city center, its real estate sales are generally less.[10] Real estate sales average 6% to 10% less than neighboring Fontvieille or La Condamine.[11] The district contains the celebrated Jardin Exotique de Monaco (French: for Exotic Garden of Monaco), founded by Prince Albert I in 1933. The garden contains a rich collection of over a thousand succulent and cacti. There is also a museum, called the Prehistoric Anthropology located within the Exotic Garden, which displays a variety of prehistoric remains.[12]
