"Paris: a Symbol of Art" Paris by Manyana


Paris Travel Guide: 26,629 reviews and 52,009 photos

Paris is a small city compared to other major cities but it is so big, so fascinating in its art and culture.
I only spent few days in paris and knew my way around very well.
French people are extremely nice unlike what I was told. Everyone was willing to help tourists find their way even when they didn't speak English.
One thing I was told about Paris and found it to be very true is the art; Paris has its own artistic culture, amazing architecture, unique food, and full-of-light nightlife.

Just go to Paris and fall in love, sink in beauty, be a piece of this art!

Pros and Cons

    Always interesting to see my home country with external eyes. Regarding the "rude" frenchs, I think it was more true 10y ago, as a consequence somewhere of a lot of (some arrogant) US tourists.

    I love PaRiS - such a bohemian city!! Did you also feel as *love was in the air*? :) Spending Christmas time in Paris must be really magic! I see you enjoyed it a lot :)

    You're right about French people being really nice. That's my experience, too. Glad you had such a good visit to Paris. I spent ten days there last year and had a great time cycling all around.
