Paris.... capital of France… renown as the city of lights, city of romance, city of love.
Paris definitely belongs to Europe’s top cities and for many people it’s the absolute highlight of their visit to France or Europe. The city’s streets seem abloom with elegance and grace every day of the year. Romance is felt everywhere.

But Paris has a lot more to offer. There is so much to do here, the city is scattered with some of the world’s most impressive museums, churches, cathedrals, and other remarkable architectural highlights. Stroll the exclusive Champs Elysee with its many fashion boutiques and admire the gold covered Obelisk at the Place de la Concorde. Don’t miss the Pantheon or the lovely Jardins de Luxembourg gardens, les Invalides, the Centre Pompidou modern art museum, should we continue? Sure, visit the Picasso Museum, Musee d’Orsay, marvel at the Grand Arche de Defènse and let all your magical experiences sink in during a boat cruise on the Seine.
Stay an extra day to make a daytrip to the unequalled and enormous Versailles palace, just outside of Paris.
Reading all this may be overwhelming. Indeed… welcome to Paris.
If you’re not into all the cultural stuff it’s just great to stroll around some of Paris’ neighborhoods which each have their own charm and ambiance. Besides being one of the worlds’ most beautiful cities Paris also stands out in the field of shopping, entertainment, gastronomy and nightlife.
