Paris France : Overview

Paris, France also called the city of lights, is one of the most beautiful and romantic cities in the World (see how to get to Paris). The best way to visit Paris is by walk (and by boat) :

  • Visit Paris by walk, because there is always something to look at and that the city is not huge. There is a great density and variety of points of interest throughout the city. Most of all, the subway ("le métro") and city trains (called RER) will allow you to go from a place to another and give rest to your feet!
  • Visit Paris by boat : Paris is divided in two banks (left and right bank) and was constructed around the Seine River, so the best sightseeing of Paris is from the Seine river itself : do not miss a cruise on the river boats ("bateaux Mouche") at day or night.

There are many popular touristic attractions in Paris : we display in this site the places to see in Paris and around Paris
