France: Paris


In a nutshell...

Paris can be discovered in many different ways. Sightseers can visit the Eiffel Tower, Sacré Cœur, the Montparnasse Tower and the Arc de Triomphe Cultural visits of Paris include the Louvre, the Pompidou Centre, the Grand Palace and the Orsay Museum. Whichever sights you choose, the capital abounds with visual delights.


Fashion capital of the world, Paris also presents style and luxury from the Champs-Elysées to the Rue de Rivoli, where you can visit the Baccarat Museum or the Museum of Fashion and Fabric.
Paris is also every man’s town and quarters such as the old Montmartre or unusual Belleville with their bistros and traditional festivals are symbolic of the village spirit that can be found within this metropolis.
Finally, Paris is a city of fine food where well-known chefs such as Fauchon and Lenôtre are well-established on the Place de la Madeline.
A city to visit, explore and relish!

Few hours around Trocadéro

Few hours around Trocadéro

Artists and partiers alike have begun to occupy the west of Paris. The Palais de Tokyo serves as a headquarters of convergence for these two distinctly different communities.

Restauranters have begun to count on both groups' presence and have had to constantly innovate and re-innovate to keep their top rankings. In the same neighborhood, high end boutiques have begun selling original products in limited quantities. If it all seems a little too advancd for you, try following the Design à Paris tour.

Stop and catch your breath in the middle of it all, but don't forget to look up, or you may miss seeing the sparkling Eiffel Tower. To keep your eyes and imagination fascinated, book a table at Music Hall, the colorful range of invention here seems to go on forever.
