Lauded as the cultural capital of Europe, Paris is perhaps one of the most well-known cities in the entire world. Everyone has heard of it, and the first thing that comes to mind for any visitor when they hear her name whispered is “city of romance”.
Ideas on just how it got that reputation are as varied as the people who will explain it to you, but one thing is for sure: Paris is so chock-full of experiences that you will never be able to cram it all in to just one visit to this amazing capital city.
Paris has been a major city in Europe since the middle ages, but in recent years it has become more than just a capital. It is one of the premier tourist destinations in the world. Visitors flock from all around the globe to visit the Eiffel Tower, spend a day at Disneyland Paris, or visit the Louvre to see the Mona Lisa.
The food and wine within Paris are without match. Nowhere else in the world will you find such a broad array of wines and cuisines. The love of food and wine has long been a reference point when talking about the French people, and nowhere is that more evident than in the capital. Here you will experience delights that will send shivers down your spine as you sample the elegance of world-class cuisine and Bordeaux.
Paris is the throbbing heart of Europe’s cultural scene. No matter the reason why you come here, you will leave a changed person, with feet that are just ready to set foot on her streets the next time.

I recently went to Paris and stayed in the Central La Defense area which i really enjoyed. La Defence looks amazing at night and still such a modern design
