About Paris

This is simply one of the great cities of the world and now it can be accessed by train – the Eurostar through the Channel Tunnel – from London. The symbol of Paris is the Eiffel Tower – a thrilling experience. The Louvre Museum, especially since it took over the former Ministry of Finance on the north side, is arguably the most magnificent museum in the world. Yet, opposite it on the other side of the River Seine, the Musée d’Orsay art gallery houses a stunning collection of Impressionist paintings.

Other locations to visit include Notre Dame Cathedral, the Art de Triomphe, and Napoleon’s Tomb in Les Invalides. Less well-known places include the Saint Chapelle with its gorgeous glass and the Orangerie gallery with its giant Monet water lillies. enjoy the buzz of the Champs-Elysées and the restaurants of the Latin Quarter and so much more.
