Paris-the city of love

Paris, the capital of France, called the city of love, is one of the most beautiful capitals in the world and one of the largest cities. With the famous symbol Eiffel Tower, this city has an indescribable charm and can be a dream destination for your vacation.



It is ideal to go to Paris together with your loved one because, besides major cultural sites such as Cathedral Notre Damme du Paris, Champs-Elysees, Eiffel Tower, Louvre Museum, Basilica Sacre-Coer, here you can find many places full of romance such as walks along the river Senna, enjoying coffee at a cafe in Paris, all these making you to appreciate the most beautiful and simple things in life.



Lawrence Durell said about Paris : "The national characteristics... the restless metaphysical curiosity, the tenderness of good living and the passionate individualism.This is the invisible constant in a place with which the ordinary tourist can get in touch just by sitting quietly over a glass of wine in Paris bistro." In other words, Paris itself is a way to leave your life.

The sights of Paris are very different from the great monuments like the Palace of Versailles, Les Invalides, Eiffel Tower, Arc de Triomphe, the majestic cathedrals such as Notre-Damme, Sacred Coer, Sainte Chapelle to world class museums like the Louvre Museum, Centre Pampidou, Orsay Museum, art exhibitions, extraordinary gardens that parisians love them very much, such as Luxembourg gardens (on the left bank of the Senne), Tuileries gardens (route from the Louvre to the Arc de Triomphe), park Royal Versailles and large forests such as the Bois de Boulogne and Bois de Vincennes.
