Gites -
in - France are featuring
Paris as one of the worlds great cities and is easy to negotiate even on the
first visit. The périphérique and boulevard circulaire ring roads enclose
a core, the heart of which is small enough to walk across in an afternoon!! There
are more than 80 museums and approx. 200 art galleries in Paris.
But don't miss:
- A boat trip on the River Seine
- The magnificent cathedral of Notre-Dame
- Eiffel Tower
- Place Charles de Gaulle (Arc deTriomphe)
- Champs-Elysées
- Place de la Concorde, the Jardin des Tuileries and the Louvre
- Centre Pompidou
- Montmartre
One of the great pleasures of Paris is the great number of sidewalk cafés, now
glass-enclosed in wintertime, which extends to people-watching to a year-round sport in
any part of the city. There are as many Vietnamese and Chinese restaurants as there are
French cafés. North African eating places also abound, and dozens of American Tex-Mex
eateries are scattered throughout the city. Bric-a-brac or brocante is found in a
number of flea markets (marché aux puces) on the outskirts of town, notably at the
Porte de Clignancourt.
On the outskirts of Paris are the remains of the great forests of the Ile-de-France
and don't miss the magnificent châteaux of Versailles, Rambouillet
and Fontainebleau.
The Disneyland Paris Resort lies to the east of the capital, a complete holiday
in itself located at Marne-la-Vallée, 32km (20 miles) from Paris. The site has an
area of 1943 hectares (5000 acres), one-fifth of the size of Paris, and includes hotels,
restaurants, a campsite, shops, a golf course and has as its star attraction the Disneyland
Paris Theme Park. Inspired by previous theme parks, Euro Disneyland features all the
famous Disney characters plus some new attractions. The site is easily reached by
motorway, regional and high-speed rail services, and by air. Euro Disney lies between two
major international airports, Roissy-Charles de Gaulle and Orly.
