Paris City Guide
Paris is in some ways the essence of France. Notre Dame cathedral
ranks among the most magnificent Gothic churches. Landmark Eiffel
tower is masterpiece of engineering and sparked up a vivid discourse
with Paris' elite demanding it be torn down immediately. Gladly,
they did not prevail.
Shops, fast food stalls and showrooms adorn elegant shopping promenade
Champs-Élysées on its way from Place de la
Concorde to Arc de Triomphe. 'Grand Arche' is the 20th century counterpart
of ancient arc of triumph and is an example for Paris' interest
in cutting edge architecture.
Montmartre has preserved some of its village spirit and was
formerly inhabited by the likes of Van Gogh, Renoir, Monet or Picasso.
Sacre-Coeur church and its cemetery are best known sights.
Centre Pompidou is an avant-garde building with a collection
of 20th century art. Musée d'Orsay is a spectacular
adaption of an abandoned railway station and devoted to 19th century
art. The Louvre is breathtaking for its architecture as well
as its art collection.
Tuileries garden and Jardin du Luxembourg provide an illusion of
nature in this ever-active city. For major (landscape) architecture
head to Versailles just outside of Paris.
