About Paris

Paris vereint große Boulevards und Monumente am Fluss mit Caféterrassen, Kunstsammlungen von Weltrang und Vierteln, die sich wie Dörfer anfühlen.

Die Seine fließt durch das Herz der Stadt, vorbei an der Île de la Cité mit Notre-Dame und der Sainte-Chapelle, an der langen Fassade des Louvre und am Musée d'Orsay in einem ehemaligen Bahnhof. Flussabwärts erhebt sich der Eiffelturm über dem Champ de Mars, und der Arc de Triomphe krönt die Champs-Élysées.
