France facts and history in brief               Paris facts and history in brief



Paris is the capital and largest city of France.

The city is built on an arc of the River Seine, and is thus divided into two parts: the Right Bank to the north and the smaller Left Bank in the south.
The city proper has about 2 million residents (1999 census: 2,147,857).

The Greater Paris metropolitan area has about 11 million residents (1999 census: 11,174,743).

Interesting sights in Paris:
The Eiffel Tower
Arc de Triomphe
Cathedral of Notre Dame
Basilica of the Sacré Coeur
Sorbonne
Place de la Concorde - at the foot of the Champs-Élysées
Statue of Liberty (Smaller version of the New York City harbour statue
Place de la Bastille
Pantheon of Paris
Bal du Moulin Rouge
and many, many more.



Sarolta and I visited Paris a few times during our touring around in Europe in 1978.

Well, you all know, Paris is huge, quite beautiful, took Hui Chin and I some time to check everything out, 'to get our seal of approval' in 2003.
Paris is OK, but quite expensive for us antipodeans.

In 2004, Hui Chin and I was forced to visit Paris again a number of times, to get our Visa to Mali, but neither of us really objected or minded it very much.

We paid a flying visit to Paris in 2005 and 2006 again, staying for a couple of days each time.

Paris is all right to visit, 'she' is beautiful and always plenty to see.

Enjoyed it.
