BEST OF PARIS

TOP SIGHTS, AUTHENTIC EXPERIENCES

Welcome to Paris

Paris is a city that transcends time, infused with the energy of generations of artists, writers and philosophers whove strolled its boulevards and cobbled lanes, debated on its cafe terraces, and shopped at its street markets.

La Ville Lumire (the City of Light) was so named because of its leading role in the Age of Enlightenment, and the name is as apt as ever today. The metropolis is awash with world-class landmarks that need no introduction the Eiffel Tower, Arc de Triomphe and Notre Dame among them along with a trove of specialist museums and galleries. The citys creamy-stone, grey-metal-roofed apartment buildings, lamp-lit bridges and geometrically laid-out formal parks are also an integral part of its fabric.

Yet contrary to its magnificently preserved cityscapes, Paris has never stood still, but has constantly evolved throughout the eras, leading the way in industrial, artistic, scientific and architectural endeavours. And this innovation continues today, with pioneering green transport initiatives, dazzling new architectural projects including the glittering metallic faade encasing the Philharmonie de Paris concert hall and the translucent rainforest-inspired canopy covering the former-wholesale-marketsturned-shopping-mall Forum des Halles and visionary creativity evident everywhere from neobistro kitchens to fashion ateliers and radical street art. Welcome to Paris.
