There are many reasons to visit Paris and not one reason not to.
What is the secret of its appeal and charm? What makes it a dream and makes you return here again?
First, it is the architecture of the city itself. You can endlessly wander through Paris, stopping to drink coffee or wine in street cafes, admire the streets and houses, look at the shop windows. In this city, past and present are amazingly harmoniously combined: Renaissance houses neighbor with neoclassical and Art Nouveau masterpieces. And night Paris! In the light of the lanterns, the streets are transformed, and all the grandeur of the city emerges.
Second, Paris is a city of museums. The most famous of them is the Louvre, the largest treasure trove of art in the world. There are also small museums in Paris that house private collections, for example, the Jacquemart-André Museum and the Nissim de Camondo Museum.
Third, Paris is simply a shopaholic's dream. In this capital of fashion, you can find very expensive stores and boutiques where prices for world-famous brands are sky-high. Or you can go to the outlet center La Vallée Village, which houses boutiques of Diesel, Armani, Bally, Salvatore Ferragamo, Guess, Joseph, Kenzo, Sandro, Max Mara, Burberry Womenswear, and find items from last year's collections at good discounts. Do not forget to book a hotel close to the stores. We suggest using the booking system.
The fourth reason to visit Paris is the refined French cuisine. In this country, culinary traditions are akin to art. Just one French pastry is worth it! In Paris, there are many wonderful bakeries where everyone can find "their" bread and taste amazing pastries.
Fifth – flowers. At the flower markets and shops of Paris, of which there are many, a sea of various bouquets for every taste is presented. All the goods are displayed outside, and it is simply impossible to pass by. Flowers are customarily given on any occasion: going to visit, at a wedding, on Valentine's Day, Mother's Day, or just because.
Another reason – French perfumery and cosmetics. Of course, today this surprises no one, but some collectible, exclusive fragrances are worth buying only in Paris. For example, you can visit Caron – the oldest perfume house in the world. Or the boutique of the young house Francis Kurkdjian. On the Champs-Élysées there is the most beautiful perfume boutique of the house Maison Guerlain. And classic perfumes you will find at the Detaille store.
Shopaholics simply must visit the Parisian flea markets. Here you will find everything: from furniture and interior items to costume jewelry, coins, and much more. You have a chance to buy a unique item very inexpensively and simply take a pleasant walk through an open-air museum of antique curiosities.
And, finally, Paris is not only all the above-described attractions. It is also the people, the residents of the city. Parisians are not at all like us and deserve a separate conversation. They do not try to impress and show off. These people are content with themselves, very simple and modest in dress, and do not strive to surround themselves with luxury. In addition, the French are extremely polite, and that is impressive.
It absolutely does not matter what exactly from the above will strike and attract you to Paris, but it will surely captivate you forever.
