Geography
Les Révoires lies on the northwestern side of the principality, just north of Moneghetti.[4] Les Révoires is generally considered part of Moneghetti, even though it was its own administrative ward. It runs directly along the neighbouring French towns of Beausoleil and Cap-d'Ail, as well as the Monégasque wards of La Colle and Moneghetti.[4][5][6]
Les Révoires, which has steep inclines, offers views of the Rock of Monaco and the Mediterranean. It is also the location of the Chemin des Révoires,[7] Monaco's highest point, 162 m[8] above sea level.[9]
Demographics
Les Révoires is the smallest ward in Monaco in terms of both population and land size. Les Révoires has a population of 2,545 and covers a total of 0.09 km2.[10]
Monaco has ten state-operated schools, four private schools and one university; there are no state schools and private schools located in the district.[11] There are also very few government offices located in this district, although there is a regional police station near the Les Révoires–Moneghetti border.[12]
Tourism
Les Révoires is more of a residential area, but there are many chain-owned hotels and bed and breakfasts, along the upper slopes of Mont Agel, helping Monaco's high-end tourist industry.[13]
Landmarks
As Les Révoires is located outside the municipality centre, its real estate sales are generally less than that of other wards.[14] Real estate sales average 6% to 10% less than neighboring Fontvieille or La Condamine.[15] 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.[16]
