Paris alia grandes avenidas e monumentos à beira do rio a esplanadas de café, coleções de arte de fama mundial e bairros que parecem aldeias.

O Sena atravessa o coração da cidade, passando pela Île de la Cité com Notre-Dame e a Sainte-Chapelle, pela longa fachada do Louvre e pelo Museu de Orsay, instalado na antiga estação de comboios. Rio abaixo, a Torre Eiffel ergue-se sobre o Champ de Mars e o Arco do Triunfo coroa a Avenida dos Campos Elísios.
