The fascinating city of Paris is the capital city of France and is undeniably one of the most popular travel destinations in the world. The ‘city of lights’ attracts millions of visitors each year and offers too many attractions to see in just one visit. This trend setting metropolis is filled with numerous iconic landmarks, beautiful attractions, world famous institutions and popular parks. The city is deserved reputation for being one of the most romantic spots in the world as well as the leading centre of culture, art, fashion, food and design. One of the highlights and most recognized structures in the world is the famous Eiffel Tower. From the top floor of this colossal structure, visitors can see the panoramic views that span the entire city and beyond. The Louvre is one of the oldest and arguably one of the most famous museums and art galleries in the world and should definitely not be missed when visiting Paris. Other amazing attractions include the Champs Elysées, perhaps one of the most famous shopping streets in the world and the Notre Dame Cathedral, a masterpiece of Gothic architecture. Paris has a lively festival calendar with events being held throughout the year, including the Great Wines Fair, the Paris Film Festival and the biggest event for lovers of fashion--Paris Fashion Week, which held on the early March of each year.As the old song says, Paris is at its best in springtime, even if it is sometimes a little wet. The city is always alive in every season. In winter Paris has all sorts of cultural events going on, while in summer the weather is warm and lazy - sometimes sizzling. In August, when Parisians flee for the beaches to the west and south, many restaurateurs lock up and leave town too, but this is changing rapidly and you'll find considerably more places open in summer than even a decade ago. Things can get a bit hectic around Bastille Day (14 July) and towards the end of the year so reservations at this time are a good idea.
