Paris is the capital and the largest city in France. Paris is also one of the most visited cities in the world, and has a wealth of culture, fashion, cuisine and art that would delight the most jaded tourist. The city itself feels like a historic monument, and it's no surprise that parts of Paris, including the banks of the River Seine, are a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Paris has something for every type of tourist, from Museums to Architecture, from haute cuisine to delicious street food, from relaxed afternoons sipping wine at a street front café to spending hours walking and climbing through the various monuments and buildings. This plethora of options can be overwhelming to the first time visitor, so it's important to plan ahead what you intend to see and do while in Paris. This doesn't mean having every hour charted out, but having a good grasp of the options that look good to you before you go is a key to having a enjoyable visit to Paris.
