"The City of Lights!" a Paris Travel Page by Jerelis

Paris, known as the City of Light, is one of our favorite cities and we have visited it a few times.

Paris is the second-largest city in Western Europe, and it is probably the city with the most things to see.

The center of Paris is divided in 20 arrondissements in a sort of spiral with the first arrondissement in the middle and the higher numbers on the outer circle. Most of the arrondissements have their own characteristics. The majority of the world known sights (Eiffel Tower, Champs-Elysées, Louvre, Panthéon,...) are situated in the first 8 arrondissements.
