Paris, France’s capital is a city of love, city of lights and an International Melting Pot. It is the most visited tourist destination in the world, with over 45 million visitors annually, it is very easy to arrive in Paris with huge expectations: of grand vistas and of budding writers in every café. Among the 2-million-strong population in Paris, around 20% are immigrants from all over the world making Paris one of the biggest multi-cultural centres in Europe. This meeting of cultures and cuisines means that Paris is always on the cutting edge in the worlds of food, art, music and fashion.

A week, a month, a year isn't long enough to uncover all of Paris' treasures. But it would be a lifetime well spent when once visited Paris. This city is populated by people, architecture, restaurants and nightlife that will seduce you and make you never want to leave.

On all levels – historical, architectural, and cultural – there is something all about Paris that will fascinate you.
