===Significant sites===
While there are casinos in many places, a few places have become well known specifically for gambling. Perhaps the place almost defined by its casino is Monte Carlo, but other places are known as gambling centers.

====Monte Carlo, Monaco====
[[File:Casino de Monte-Carlo.jpg|thumb|right|View of the [[Monte Carlo Casino]], Monaco]]

{{Main|Monte Carlo Casino}}
Opened in 1865, [[Monte Carlo Casino]], located in [[Monte Carlo]] city, in [[Monaco]], is a casino and a tourist attraction.

Monte Carlo Casino has been depicted in books, songs and films. It features prominently in the [[James Bond]] films ''[[Never Say Never Again]]'' (1983) and ''[[GoldenEye]]'' (1995). Casinos feature throughout the Bond series, with the character introducing himself to the world at [[Les Ambassadeurs Club]] in [[Mayfair]], London with the line "Bond, James Bond" in ''[[Dr. No (film)|Dr. No]]'' (1962).<ref>{{Cite book |last1=Cork |first1=John |author1-link=John Cork |last2=Scivally |first2=Bruce |year=2002 |title=James Bond: The Legacy |publisher=Boxtree |location=London |isbn=978-0-7522-6498-1 |url-access=registration |url=https://archive.org/details/jamesbondlegacy0000cork |page=6}}</ref>

The Monte Carlo Casino is mentioned in the 1891 British [[music hall]] song "[[The Man Who Broke the Bank at Monte Carlo (song)|The Man Who Broke the Bank at Monte Carlo]]" as well as [[The Man Who Broke the Bank at Monte Carlo (film)|the 1935 film of the same name]].<ref>{{cite news |title=The Man Who Broke the Bank at Monte Carlo — music hall hit was inspired by a shady character |url=https://ig.ft.com/life-of-a-song/monte-carlo.html |access-date=12 April 2025 |work=Financial Times}}</ref> The song was inspired by the exploits of English trickster [[Charles Wells (gambler)|Charles Wells]], who in 1891 "broke the bank" on many occasions on the first two of his three trips to the casino.<ref>{{cite book |last=Coborn |first=Charles |date=1928 |title=The Man Who Broke the Bank: Memories of the Stage and Music Hall |location=London |publisher=Hutchinson |pages=227-228}}</ref>

The Monte Carlo Casino features in [[Ben Mezrich]]'s 2005 book ''[[Busting Vegas]]'', where a group of students beat the casino out of nearly $1 million. This book is based on real people and events; however, many of those events are contested by main character [[Semyon Dukach]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://thepogg.com/thepogg-interviews-semyon-dukach-mit-card-counting-team-captain/|title=ThePOGG Interviews - Semyon Dukach - MIT Card Counting Team Captain|access-date=2012-10-11|archive-date=2018-10-27|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20181027221211/https://thepogg.com/thepogg-interviews-semyon-dukach-mit-card-counting-team-captain/|url-status=usurped}}.</ref>

{{Main|Casinò di Campione}}
Casinò di Campione is located in the tiny [[Italy|Italian]] enclave of [[Campione d'Italia]], within [[Ticino]], Switzerland. The casino was founded in 1917 as a site to gather information from foreign diplomats during the First World War. Today it is owned by the Italian government, and operated by the municipality. With gambling laws being less strict than in Italy and Switzerland, it is among the most popular gambling destination besides Monte Carlo. The income from the casino is sufficient for the operation of Campione without the imposition of taxes, or obtaining of other revenue.<ref name=nytehs>{{cite news|url=http://opinionator.blogs.nytimes.com/2012/05/15/enclave-hunting-in-switzerland/|title=Enclave-Hunting in Switzerland|date=May 15, 2012|newspaper=[[The New York Times]]|author=Frank Jacobs|access-date=May 19, 2018|archive-date=March 23, 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150323103742/http://opinionator.blogs.nytimes.com/2012/05/15/enclave-hunting-in-switzerland/|url-status=live}}</ref> In 2007, the casino moved into new premises of more than {{convert |55000|m2}}, making it the largest casino in Europe.<ref name="economist.com">{{cite news|url=https://www.economist.com/news/business/21586616-casinos-are-licence-print-money-right-not-one-losing-streak|title=Gambling: Losing streak|newspaper=The Economist|date=21 September 2013|access-date=19 May 2018|archive-date=2 May 2017|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170502035250/http://www.economist.com/news/business/21586616-casinos-are-licence-print-money-right-not-one-losing-streak|url-status=live}}</ref> The new casino was built alongside the old one, which dated from 1933 and has since been demolished.<ref name= nytehs/><ref>{{cite web|url=http://como-lake.arounder.com/en/casinos/casino-campione-d-italia|title=Casinó Campione d'Italia|work=Arounder|publisher=VRWAY Communication|access-date=2012-10-16|archive-date=2011-12-22|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20111222032042/http://como-lake.arounder.com/en/casinos/casino-campione-d-italia|url-status=live}}</ref>

====Malta====
The archipelago of [[Malta]] is a particularly famous place for casinos, standing out mainly with the historic casino located at the princely residence of [[Dragonara Palace|Dragonara]].

====Macau====
{{Main|Gambling in Macau}}
[[File:Venetian Macau.jpg|thumb|[[The Venetian Macao]]]]
The former [[Portuguese empire|Portuguese colony]] of [[Macau]], a [[special administrative region of the People's Republic of China]] since 1999, is a popular destination for visitors who wish to gamble.<ref name=cnn>{{cite news|url=https://www.cnn.com/travel/article/macau-best-casinos/index.html|title=Macau's best casinos: A 2018 guide|last=Whitehead|first=Kate|work=[[CNN]]|date=2018-01-14|access-date=2020-05-23|archive-date=2020-05-23|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200523155447/https://www.cnn.com/travel/article/macau-best-casinos/index.html|url-status=live}}</ref> This started in Portuguese times, when Macau was popular with visitors from nearby [[Hong Kong]], where gambling was more closely regulated. [[The Venetian Macao]] is currently the largest casino in the world. Macau also surpassed Las Vegas as the largest gambling market in the world.<ref name=cnn/>

====Germany====
Machine-based gaming is only permitted in land-based casinos, restaurants, bars and gaming halls, and only subject to a licence. Online slots are, at the moment, only permitted if they are operated under a Schleswig-Holstein licence. [[amusement with prize|AWP]]s are governed by federal law – the Trade Regulation Act and the Gaming Ordinance.

====Portugal====
{{Main|Casino Estoril}}
[[File:Casino Estoril - panoramio.jpg|thumb|The [[Casino Estoril]], in [[Portuguese Riviera]], is Europe's largest casino by capacity.]]
The [[Casino Estoril]], located in the municipality of [[Cascais]], on the [[Portuguese Riviera]], near [[Lisbon]], is the largest casino in Europe by capacity.

With currently over 1,000 casinos, the United States has the largest number of casinos in the world. The number continues to grow steadily as more states seek to legalize casinos. 40 states now{{when|date=December 2017}} have some form of casino gambling. Interstate competition, such as gaining tourism, has been a driving factor to continuous legalization.<ref>{{cite journal|last1=Calcagno|first1=Peter T.|last2=Walker|first2=Douglas M.|last3=Jackson|first3=John D.|title=Determinants of the probability and timing of commercial casino legalization in the United States|journal=Public Choice|date=January 2010|volume=142|issue=1–2|pages=69–90|doi=10.1007/s11127-009-9475-2|s2cid=153403197}}</ref>  Relatively small places such as [[Las Vegas]] are best known for gambling; larger cities such as [[Chicago]] are not defined by their casinos in spite of the large turnover.

[[Native American gambling enterprises|Native American gaming]] has been responsible for a rise in the number of casinos outside of Las Vegas and Atlantic City.

====Vietnam====
In [[Vietnam]], the term "casinos" encompasses gambling activities within the [[Vietnam|country]].
