France - Paris Hotels

The dreamy city of Paris is the capital of France and has been so for hundreds of years. Paris is located in the mid-north of the country. The River Seine, the beating heart of the city, divides the city into two halves. Today, Paris is a large metropol with a population more than 12 million. Most important of all, it is the capital of French culture. It is one of the most amazing cities of the world. It has a special aura and atmosphere that mesmerizes any visitor at first sight. Of course, first thing you'd want to see will be the Eiffel Tower which is now globally known as a symbol of Paris, and France as well. It is the tallest structure in this city. It is a joy to watch Eiffel appear between buildings and then disappear again as you are driving along the busy streets of the city. The old cathedral of Notre Dame should be the second stop for a Paris tourist, as it is one of the best examples of architecture of its kind. The pleasure of watching the city from Sacré Coeur Basilica that smiles down to the city from the highest point of the city, Montmartre is as great as the pleasure of watching Sacré Coeur Basilica from the city. The harmony of old and new is sublime in this breathtaking city. Haute couture doesn't feel out of place in the middle of hundreds of years of heritage. The chic boutiques in Champs Elysees are the capital for world fashion. And then there are the top class art galleries and museums of Paris; the Louvre Museum for example is the home to the Mona Lisa. The Museum of Modern Art and the Picasso Museum are both must sees for any tourist. A romantic vacation in Paris is always an enchanting experience. With all it offers, Paris being one of the most popular tourists destination is not surprising at all!
