Paris
When
you speak of the ultimate European city, it must be Paris. If only for
the view from the Place de la Concorde or the Tuileries towards the Arc
de Triomphe or similar striking sights beside the Seine.Here is the
fashion capital of the world and the center of gastronomic invention
and execution. The Seine divides the city into its northern Right Bank
(Rive Droite) and southern Left Bank (Rive Gauche). To really see Paris
you need at least a couple of weeks. If you only have a couple of days
the best thing to do is to make a bus tour of the city first, so that
you get some idea of what Paris is about, and then decide which areas
to concentrate on.
