Why Paris? Paris is the archetypal city of grand boulevards, museums and café terraces, endlessly romantic yet full of village-like quartiers. The city is known for the Eiffel Tower and Louvre, café culture, fashion and patisserie.
Good to know: April–June and September–October are lovely; August is quieter as Parisians leave. The metro is dense and quick; central Paris is a joy to walk arrondissement by arrondissement.
