About Paris

Paris associe grands boulevards et monuments au bord de l'eau, terrasses de café, collections d'art de renommée mondiale et quartiers aux airs de village.

La Seine traverse le cœur de la ville, longeant l'île de la Cité avec Notre-Dame et la Sainte-Chapelle, la longue façade du Louvre et le musée d'Orsay installé dans son ancienne gare. En aval, la tour Eiffel s'élève au-dessus du Champ-de-Mars, et l'Arc de Triomphe couronne les Champs-Élysées.
