A travel guide will tell you that Paris is France's capital; a major European city and a global centre for art, fashion, gastronomy and culture. But it is so much more.
To young people it is the City of Love and to artists – a constant inspiration.
Say Paris and people think of the Eiffel Tower.
Marc Todd
Paris - The Eiffel Tower At Dusk (2023)
Originally built for the 1889 World’s Fair, it was only meant to be temporary. Many Parisians hated it but when it was due to be taken down, the same people insisted it stayed.
Stay a few days in Paris and you will feel the urge to visit the Moulin Rouge, the place that invented the Can-Can. Book your show now for later.
It may look close on the map - the route to Sacre-Coeur is steep, but well worth the climb.
You’ll need a coffee or a beer. Fortunately, Paris is full of street cafes.
If it’s museums you’re after – The Louvre is about as big as they come. Decide before you go, what to see.
Sooner or later, all visitors are drawn to the Seine; the life-blood of the city

Like many Capital Cities, Paris never really sleeps.
Tired but happy - to bed.
Waking up early in a Paris hotel and looking at the view is always rewarded.
