Paris is the capital of France, which is located in northern France on both banks of the Seine River, 145 km from the river's mouth on the English Channel. It is one of Europe's largest metropolitan areas, covered with landmarks famous all over the world. A city of world importance and the business, historic, intellectual, diplomatic, religious, educational, artistic, and tourist center of France, Paris owes its prosperity in large part to its favourable position on the Seine, which has been a major commercial artery since the Roman period. The city is everything it should be, the very essence of all things French.

Pros and Cons

Pros:A very romantic and beautiful city with many things to see and do.
Cons:Language is a barrier if you don't speak or understand French.
In a nutshell:The city of light, an enchanting city at any time, in every season!

Your voters have seriously underrated your tips! This is an excellent page with great information that deserves more attention! With great regret I missed Luxembourg Palace/Gardens -- the TOP of my list on the next trip!
