Paris an amazing city

by tomerik - last update: Mar 28, 2005

Paris seen from the Eiffel Tower
It sounds perhaps like a cliché but Paris must be one of the worlds most beautiful places. The city has so much to offer that anyone easily would find something to their taste.
Not many cities has more to offer when it comes to tourist attractions and architectual sights. Wether it is for shopping, holiday, a short weekend-break or your honeymoon, Paris has everything, and more, to offer.

Having lived there for one year I completely fell in love with this city.

Approx. 20 millions people visit Paris every year making it one of the worlds most popular cities.
Guess who will be opening up a store

Shopping

Paris is the Mecca for shopping. You will find anything from incredible expensive designer clothes to inexpensive second hand shops.

The best shops are on the streets off the Champs Elysees (Rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré, Avenue Franklin D. Roosevelt and Avenue Winston Churchill).

Here's some adresses to well known shopping malls that you absolutely should consider:

Galeries Lafayette
(Metro: Chaussée d'Antin La Fayette),
La Samaritaine
(Metro: Pont Neuf),
Printemps Haussmann
(Metro: Havre Caumartin),
Madelios
(Metro: Madeleine).

Cons:"Too many tourists in the weekends"
In A Nutshell:"If you haven't been there you have really missed out something"
