As I understand it, the Monte Carlo Casino is closed during the races. Is that correct? When does it open? Is it closed only on Sundays or during practice times (e.g. Thursday noon), as well?
Are you at least able to see how it looks from somewhere?
Lastly, can I wander around the area in Monte Carlo where the Opera House and Casino are located?

From website "Groups and tours: Every day, except during the Formula 1 Grand Prix, the Casino de Monte-Carlo is open to groups and tours from 9 am till 12 pm only, so that games aren't disturbed."
Would you then say that Monte Carlo is open (after 2PM) for playing even during the races? Only tours are not happening?
