Parisian microcosm

What about Paris that hasn't already been said?

Louvre

Moulin Rouge

The web overflows with her photos, cinema loves her, artists re-propose her, fashion finds its center here.
It is a romantic city and it is an eclectic city that knows how to savor from the quantity and beauty of its churches, to the places for adults only famous all over the world.
Probably each of us dreaming of travel, will have thought at least once of going to Paris. The tremendous number of its annual visitors is the concrete proof of this.
Paris seemed like a microcosm to us. Always and forever revolutionary, a sentiment that unites all social strata. A meeting point of different ideas and styles, Paris is rooted in the philosophy of the Enlightenment and projected towards the future.
Paris is glamorous and it is as glamorous for refined tastes as it is for the simpler ones. You can just enjoy its iconicity and go home satisfied, or you can search for the niche venue, the most exclusive event and fill up on worldliness. Paris is beautiful! Its palaces are so, so is the Seine that winds its way through its neighborhoods, crossed by centuries-old historic bridges, flanked by urban beaches, crossed by bateau mouche. Its gardens are beautiful and lush, the tiny rooms that look like wedding favors.
If you love the bohemian spirit, Montmartre is the Parisian district that most re-proposes it. Today's version is quite touristy but you can always imagine artists, writers, musicians without money, beginners, filling its alleys: Picasso, Van Gogh, Hemingway just to name a few. Looking at the blades of the Moulin Rouge, you can imagine middle-class people looking for an easy paid pleasure.
And if that's not enough, to recover the spirit of the time, you can be enchanted by modern artists, who blow huge bubbles of soap into the sky , that children try to burst or let yourself be entertained in the subway by the sound of a violin.
If you love luxury, Madeleine-Vendôme is the neighborhood for you. You will love the charm of the high fashion brands along the Champs Elysee, luxury hotels, and elegant and opulent buildings.
If business is your world then you have to get to La Defense, the most important business district in Europe, with its modern arch as a counterpoint to the Arc du Triomphe.
Paris is culture: artistic, historical, social. Some of its most popular monuments are concentrated in the 7th arrondissement (as the districts of Paris are called): the Eiffel Tower, Les Invalides, the Orsay Museum, the Alexandre III Bridge, the Grand Palais.
Reach the Trocadero , Palais de Chaillot indeed, to enjoy from its terrace the best overall view of the most famous tower in the world and the Seine. Then go up the tower: on the second floor there is an excellent and rather expensive restaurant, but you can also just have a drink with the city at your feet.
Not far from the city center, however reachable by fast trains, there are amusement parks for young and old: Disneyland, Asterix park, Flyview Paris, aquariums and zoological parks.
In Paris there is everything.
You can walk or take the sixteen subway lines, you can reach it by train or in one of the three airports in the city, connected to the city center by fast trains or shuttle services.
You can eat on the street in a kiosk that serves crepes, sit tight in a tiny place that serves Southern cuisine, not to miss the flavors of duck or goose meat and the scents of garlic. Or you can try to queue for dinner at the historic Bouillon Chartier or find a place that serves any typical cuisine of the world, perhaps in the Le Marais district, the most multi-ethnic in the city.
Even the weather in Paris pleases everyone: within the same day you go from full sun to need an umbrella.
Whatever your spirit, you will like Paris, everyone likes Paris!
Have a good trip!
