Paris is the economic, political and cultural centre of France. Despite years of trying to distribute the diversity of this centre throughout the country evenly, Paris remains the absolute hub of the country.
PARIS SETS THE PACE
Paris is the commercial, political, and cultural centre of France. Despite attempts to share and spread the diversity of this city to other parts of the country, Paris remains the absolute hub of France. Whoever or whatever wishes to become famous in this country must start in Paris and nowhere else. This city is the birthplace of great developments and trends in music, fashion, politics, film, commerce and the arts. Nowhere else in Europe do so much creativity, talent and ideas meet. The diversity of Paris is phenomenal. This city offers attractions, culinary delights and countless opportunities for entertainment and recreation. The most traditional sections and attractions are the Sorbonne, the riverbanks of the Seine, the Notre-Dame Cathedral, the Musée d’Orsay and the Louvre. And of course, it is impossible to forget the Eifel Tower. It is advisable to arrive early in the morning, say by 9 am, in order to avoid long line-ups. If you feel fit enough, you can climb the 360 steps to the first platform. But in any case, you must make it to the third platform, which can be reached by elevator only, from where you will enjoy a splendid view of Paris from a height of 174 metres.
